About
The goal of this study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of the combination of PSB and RIFPB and the combination of PSB and ESPB in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with sternotomy.
Full description
This study will consist of two randomized groups: Group RIFPB (n=12), Group ESP (n=12). All patients will receive standard general anesthesia. Group RIFPB patients will receive PSB and RIFPB with 0.25% bupivacaine (total volume 60 ml) bilaterally. Group ESPB patients will receive PSB and ESPB with 0.25% bupivacaine (total volume 60 ml) bilaterally. All blocks will be performed after induction of general anesthesia and before surgical incision. All patients in the study will be given 50 mg dexketoprofen and 1 g paracetamol intravenously (i.v.) 10 minutes before skin closure. Within the first 24 hours after surgery, all patients will be given 3x1 g iv paracetamol and 2x50 mg dexketoprofen. Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) will be used to assess postoperative pain at 1, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours. All patients will receive morphine via a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) device within 24 hours of surgery. If pain score is ≥ 4 despite this protocol, 50 mg tramadol iv (maximum dose 300 mg/day) will be administered as rescue analgesia.
