Summary

We aim to determine whether pectoral nerve block (PECS) performed after induction of anesthesia but before surgical incision results less opioid use in the post operative period compared with local infiltration alone in children undergoing Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) surgery.

Conditions

  • Pain, Postoperative
  • Child
  • Adolescent

Interventions

DRUG

Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by PECS block and wound infiltration

The anesthesiologist will administer bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by PECS block after induction of anesthesia before surgical incision. The EP cardiologist will also administer bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by infiltrating the wound after surgery is complete.

DRUG

Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by wound infiltration only

The EP cardiologist will administer Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by infiltrating the wound after surgery is complete.
