Optimal Injection Site for Serratus Anterior Plane Block in Reconstructive Breast Surgery

Withdrawn before enrolling · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Pain, Postoperative

In brief

The novel introduction of various chest wall blocks such as the Pecs I and II/modified Pecs blocks as well as the Serratus Anterior Plane Block have extended the application of perioperative regional anesthesia to provide analgesia for breast surgery. However, to our knowledge, there are no large studies that truly delineate the optimal injection site for the Serratus Anterior Plane Block.
