Impact of continuous serratus plane analgesia on quality of recovery after video-assisted thoracic surgery: a prospective double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to determine whether continuous serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) infusion, combined with multimodal analgesia, could enhance the quality of recovery (QoR-40) after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Although the SAPB group showed higher QoR-40 scores and reduced opioid consumption compared to the control group, these differences were not statistically significant for the primary outcome. The study concludes that while continuous SAPB may have some benefits, larger trials are needed to confirm its impact on patient-reported recovery.
