The intertransverse process block single‐ or multiple‐injection? A study protocol
Study context
- Population
- Healthy male volunteerscrossover
- Participants
- 12 volunteers
- Planned comparison
- Single-injection vs multiple-injection intertransverse process (ITP) block
- Primary endpoint
- Number of anaesthetised thoracic dermatomes for each block type
Methodological detailsprocedure-related, double-blinded, non-inferiority, Non-invasive BP measured 3 times, Sensory testing by mechanical pinprick and temperature discrimination after block, Anterior truncal thermography 3 times after block (mid-clavicular skin temperature, blocked vs contralateral hemithorax)
