SPSIP Block for Pain Control After Breast Reduction Surgery
Sponsor: Cumhuriyet University Hospital
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether an ultrasound-guided serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIP block) can lower the need for opioid pain medicine after breast reduction surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: Does adding an SPSIP block to standard anesthesia and pain treatment lower opioid use during the first 24 hours after surgery? Researchers will compare participants who receive standard anesthesia and pain treatment with participants who receive standard anesthesia and pain treatment plus an SPSIP block. Participants will: * Have planned bilateral breast reduction surgery under general anesthesia * Be randomly assigned to the SPSIP block group or the control group * Receive standard local anesthetic infiltration during surgery and standard pain treatment after surgery * Have their pain score and pain medicine use recorded during the first 24 hours after surgery * Be followed for safety and complications for 30 days after surgery

Interventions
Ultrasound-Guided Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block
Bilateral ultrasound-guided serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block will be performed after induction of general anesthesia and before surgical local anesthetic infiltration and skin incision.
Standard Perioperative Pain Treatment
Participants will receive standard general anesthesia, standardized surgical local anesthetic infiltration, and standard postoperative multimodal pain treatment with rescue analgesia when clinically needed.
