Summary

This study aims to compare the analgesic efficacy of multiple mid-transverse process to pleura (MTP) block and PCA in idiopathic scoliosis patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion surgery.

Detailed description

The postoperative period for idiopathic scoliosis patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion (PSF) is fraught with challenges, including adequate postoperative pain control and prolonged hospitalization. Regional anesthesia techniques, mainly epidural analgesia and, more recently, paravertebral blocks, became crucial parts of the multimodal analgesia (MMA) regimen after introducing ultrasound (US) in the regional anesthesia practice. Erector spinae plane (ESP) block and mid-transverse to pleura (MTP) block are the latest developments in postoperative pain therapy.

Conditions

Interventions

TypeNameDescription
OTHERMultiple Mid-Transverse Process to Pleura (MTP) BlockPatients will receive multiple mid-transverse process to pleura (MTP) block after induction of anesthesia.
DRUGMorphinePatients will receive IV-PCA. Morphine is generally administered as an initial loading dose of 0.05-0.1 mg/kg before the end of surgery, with PCA settings of a bolus dose of 0.01-0.03 mg/kg, a lockout interval of 6-10 min, and a background infusion of 0.01-0.02 mg/kg/h.
