Adequate postoperative pain control may help to minimize postoperative pulmonary complications by enabling earlier ambulation and improving the patient’s ability to take deep breaths. Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) is a compartment block; success relies on spread of injected local anesthetic (LA) within the paravertebral space. This block anesthetizes spinal nerves. ; The patients were divided into two group, In Group I: T5 was defined using high frequency linear probe and the corresponding paravertebral space, a Total of 20 ml of Bupivacine 0.25% were injected. In Group II: T4, T5, T6 and T7 were confirmed and 5 ml of of Bupivacine 0.25% were injected in each. 1 ug/kg of fentanyl up to a total of 200 ug and Paracetamol 1 gm were given whenever there is a dramatic change in the hemodynamics with surgical stimulus. At the end, the Pain score were recorded as well as 6 hr, later and the analgesic given. no difference in the median for pain score among the patients 1(1.5) vs 1(1.3) for group I and II respectively), there was a significant reduction in the adjuvant analgesic in group II. 6 hr postoperatively, the median was 5(2.7) vs 2(1.9) only for group II, with a significant statistical reduction in the intensity of pain and the use of postoperative analgesic among the group II. ; Multiple injection in paravertebral block is more efficient in controlling pain rather than single level injection.
