Aim: In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacies of | |
two different doses of a local anesthetic(LA) in | |
bilateral superficial cervical plexus block (BSCPB) for | |
pain palliation after thyroid surgery. | |
Material and Method: A total of 50 patients aged between | |
25 and 60 years, those who were in the American Society | |
of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I-II class and underwent | |
Thyroid surgery were included in the study. Patients were | |
randomized to Group T (intravenous patient-controlled | |
analgesia morphine (IV PCA) + BSCPB (%0.25 10 ml | |
bupivacaine); (n=25) and Group F (IV PCA + BSCPB (%0.25 5 | |
ml bupivacaine)) ;(n=25). Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and | |
the quantity of morphine use were evaluated at the | |
postoperative 2nd, 4th, 6th, 12th, and 24th hours follow- | |
up. Secondary outcomes included the Ramsey sedation scale | |
(RSS), side effect profile, and additional analgesic use. | |
Results: The VAS scores at 2nd, 4th, 6th, 12th and 24th | |
hours were found to be no statistically significant | |
difference between groups (p>0.05). The amounts of PCA | |
morphine consumption at the postoperative 24th hours were | |
significantly lower in Group T than in Group F (p <0.05). | |
No statistically significant difference was found in the | |
rate of secondary outcomes between the groups (p>0.05). | |
Discussion: We believe that BSCPB with two different | |
doses of LA can be used for postoperative thyroid surgery | |
pain. | |
