Effectiveness of Additional Thoracic Paravertebral Block in Improving Anesthetic Effects of Regional Anesthesia for Proximal Humeral Fracture Surgery in Elderly Patients: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Shanghai 6th People's Hospital·interventional·Posted Apr 18, 2019·Updated Jan 5, 2021

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating T2 paravertebral block and interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block for Proximal Humeral Fracture. Completed, enrolled 80 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This study evaluates the effects of T2 paravertebral block block improving interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block on the relief of pain intensity during elderly proximal humerus fracture fixation surgery. The brachial plexus and cervical plexus block(IC block) will be performed in half of participants, while the T2 paravertebral block combined with IC block will be performed in the other half.

Interventions

T2 paravertebral blockprocedure

Ultrasound guided T2 thoracic paravertebral block is added in ICTP group. After interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus block have been administrated, selective 2nd thoracic nerve root(T2) will be blocked with 10 ml of 0.25% ropivacaine(naropin).

interscalene brachial plexus block and superficial cervical plexus blockprocedure

An ultrasound-guided IC block using an ultrasound machine (Sonosite, USA), and an linear array probe with a sterile cover and a 22G(Gauge) block needle is performed. An in-plane approach, advancing the needle along the longitudinal axis of the ultrasound transducer and visualizing the entire shaft is employed. Twenty ml of 0.375% ropivacaine(naropin) is injected around brachial plexus and 10 ml of 0.25% ropivacaine around superficial cervical plexus.
