Official title
Improvement of Analgesia With Addition of Pectoral Nerve Block to Thoracic Paravertebral Blocks in Unilateral Total Simple Mastectomy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Our routine practice for patients undergoing mastectomy is to include paravertebral peripheral nerve blockade for postoperative analgesia. This study investigates whether the addition of another nerve block targeting the pectoral nerves will improve that analgesia.
