Abstrakt: | Background: Paravertebral and serratus plane blocks are both used to treat pain following breast surgery. However, it remains unknown if the newer serratus block provides comparable analgesia to the decades-old paravertebral technique. Methods: Subjects undergoing unilateral or bilateral non-mastectomy breast surgery were randomized to a single-injection serratus or paravertebral block in a subject-masked fashion (ropivacaine 0.5%; 20 mL unilateral; 16 mL/side bilateral). We hypothesized that (1) analgesia would be non-inferior in the recovery room with serratus blocks (measurement: Numeric Rating Scale), and (2) opioid consumption would be non-inferior with serratus blocks in the operating and recovery rooms. In order to claim that serratus blocks are non-inferior to paravertebral blocks, both hypotheses must be at least non-inferior. Results: Within the recovery room, pain scores for participants with serratus blocks (n=49) had a median (IQR) of 4.0 (0-5.5) vs 0 (0-3.0) for those with paravertebral blocks (n=51): 0.95% CI -3.00 to -0.00; p=0.001. However, the difference in morphine equivalents did not reach statistical significance for superiority with the serratus group consuming 14 mg (10-19) vs 10 mg (10-16) for the paravertebral group: 95% CI -4.50 to 0.00, p=0.123. Since the 95% CI lower limit of -4.5 was less than our prespecified margin of -2.0, we failed to conclude non-inferiority of the serratus block with regard to opioid consumption. Conclusions: Serratus blocks provided inferior analgesia compared with paravertebral blocks. Without a dramatic improvement in safety profile for serratus blocks, it appears that paravertebral blocks are superior to serratus blocks for postoperative analgesia after non-mastectomy breast surgery.
