Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if perioperative Transversus Thoracic Plane Block (TTPB) decrease perioperative pain after cardiac surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. does Transversus Thoracic Plane Block decrease perioperative pain after cardiac surgery more than the standard analgesic treatment?
2. Are the results different if the investigators perform Transversus Thoracic Plane Block before surgery or at the end of surgery?

Conditions

  • Transversus Thoracic Plane Block
  • Cardiac Surgery
  • Post Operative Pain

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Transversus Thoracic Plane Block

The Transversus Thoracic Plane Block is a recent regional anesthesia technique. It provides analgesia for the anterior cutaneous branches of the intercostal nerves T2-6 to the medial anterior chest wall via a single injection of local anesthesia between the internal intercostal muscle and the transversus thoracic muscle located between the third and fourth (or fourth and fifth) intercostal space. It is noteworthy that the TTPB can consequently reduce pulmonary morbidity and the need for high-dose opioids.
