Clinical Trial Summary

The study will be designed to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided pectointercostal fascial plane block versus tansversus thoracic plane block in adult cardiac surgery.


Clinical Trial Description

A prospective study will be carried out in Alexandria Main University Hospitals on 60 adult patients planned for elective cardiac surgery, after approval of the Ethical Committee of Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria, and having an informed written consent taken from patients included in the study. Patients will be categorized into two equal groups; group P (n=30)) will receive ultrasound-guided pectointercostal fascial plane block and group T (n=30) will receive ultrasound-guided transversus thoracic plane block. All patients will receive the ultrasound-guided block after induction of anesthesia and an equal booster dose of the same block before extubation in the ICU. Patients in both groups will also receive an ultrasound-guided bilateral serratus anterior plane block before extubation. ;
