No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of this study is to determine whether the use of post-incisional surgeon-delivered parasternal block is at least non-inferior in relieving postoperative pain in adult patients scheduled for cardiac surgery involving sternotomy compared with ultrasound-guided post-incisional PIFB.

Conditions

  • Parasternal Intercostal Nerve Block

Interventions

PROCEDURE

US-guided Parasternal block

Bupivacaine 0.25 % will be injected into the fascial plane between the pectoralis major muscle and external intercostal muscle or costal cartilages on each side of sternum after skin closure under ultrasound guidance

PROCEDURE

Surgeon-delivered parasternal block

Just before wiring of the sternum, the surgeon will inject bupivacaine 0.25 % in 4 mL aliquots into the anterior (2nd-6th) intercostal spaces on each side about 2 cm lateral to the sternal edge with a total volume of 40 mL under direct vision.
