Summary

The aim of this study is to assess and compare the efficacy of a serratus anterior plane (SAP) block and our current pain protocol (Patient Controlled Intravenous Analgesia with opioids) in the prevention and treatment of acute postoperative pain after totally endoscopic aortic valve replacement (AVR) surgery.

Conditions

  • Analgesia
  • Surgery
  • Cardiac Disease

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Serratus anterior plane block

The needle will be introduced in-plane from supero-anterior to postero-inferior until the needle tip is positioned in the plane underneath the serratus muscle (deep compartment). Under continuous ultrasound guidance,30 cc Bupivacaine 0.25% will be injected in the deep compartment. After the deep component of the SAP is completed, the needle will be withdrawn to the subcutaneous tissues. The needle will be flattened and advanced in-plane to the plane superficial to the serratus muscles. 10 cc Bupivacaine 0.25% will be injected superficial to the serratus muscles after correct placement of the needle tip is confirmed on ultrasound

DRUG

PCIA with Piritramide

A patient controlled intravenous analgesia system (IVAC PCAM®, Cardinal Health or CADD pump) with piritramide (Dipidolor®, Janssen) using following settings: bolus 2 mg and lockout interval 15 min.
