Comparison of Postoperative Analgesic Efficacy of Erector Spinae Plane Block With 20 ml and 30 ml Bupivacaine Volumes in Cardiac Surgery
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating bilateral erector spinae plane block with 30 mL 0.25 % bupivacaine and bilateral erector spinae plane block with 20 mL 0.25 % bupivacaine for Cardiac Surgery and Postoperative Pain. Completed, enrolled 70 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Even though erector spinae plane (ESP) block is shown to be efficient in cardiac surgery, it is still controversial how much volume is necessary for efficient analgesic effect for sternotomy and drain tube pain relief. This study aims to investigate the optimal local anesthetic volume (20 mL versus 30 mL) with ESP block for open-heart cardiac surgery.
