Single- versus Multiple-Injection Intertransverse Process Block for VATS: A Randomized Trial on Dermatomal Sensory Blockade
Single- and multiple-injection ITP blocks showed no significant difference in sensory changes or analgesic effect. The shorter performance time of the single-injection technique suggests it may be a more practical option. However, larger, higher powered studies are required to confirm equivalence and establish definitive recommendations.
