Figure 3 Mean numeric rating scale (NRS) score at rest (A) and while coughing (B) during the first 24 h after surgery. The error bars represent standard error. * P<0.05 between the CTEB group and TPVB group, & P<0.05 between the ESPB group and TPVB group. There was no significant difference between the CTEB group and ESPB group at any time points. CTEB – combined thoracic paravertebral block and erector spinae plane block; ESPB – erector spinae plane block; TPVB – thoracic paravertebral block.
