Abstract

The aim of this investigation was to compare recovery of respiratory function after cancer lung resection for patients with systemic opioid analgesia and with paravertebral blockade. 80 patients with lung cancer were included in prospective randomized investigation. In comparison group we used phentanyl, paracetamol, tramadol, in main group - paravertebral blockade. Paravertebral blockade after cancer lung resection provides higher level of analgesia than systemic opiod analgesia. This is accompanied by significant improvement in spirometric indices and oxygenation.
