About
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the combination of Superficial Parasternal Block and Recto-Intercostal Fascial Plane Block in patient groups undergoing cardiac surgery via sternotomy by evaluating postoperative pain scores and analgesic consumption.
Full description
Ten patients received a combination of parasternal block and recto-intercostal fascial plane block as an intervention. Patients received bilateral parasternal block and recto-intercostal fascial plane block with 0.25% bupivacaine (total volume 60 ml) in the operating room before surgery. All blocks will be performed after general anesthesia induction, before skin incision. All patients included in the study will be given 50 mg dexketoprofen and 1 g paracetamol intravenously (i.v.) 10 minutes before skin closure. All patients will be given 3x1 g iv paracetamol and 2x50 mg dexketoprofen within the first 24 hours postoperatively. Numerical rating scale (NRS) was used to assess pain at the 1st, 6th, 12th, 18th and 24th hours after surgery. Total morphine consumption was calculated using a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) device. Tramadol was planned as rescue analgesic medication (maximum dose: 300 mg/day).
