Detailed Description
Many women experience severe acute postoperative pain after breast cancer surgery. Regional techniques are frequently used as a part of multimodal analgesia in breast surgery. Ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a preferred method to reduce the postoperative opioid requirement for postoperative pain management. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of injection rate on the block sensory level in the ESP block.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Block sensory level [12 hours]
Number (average) of dermatomes with sensory block with pinprick and cold methods after the ESP block
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative tramadol consumption [24 hours]
Postoperative tramadol consumption will be recorded at 24 hours
- Assesment of postoperative analgesia [24 hours]
Post operative pain scores will be assessed using a numerical rating scala (NRS) (from 0=no pain, to10= worst pain imaginable).
