NCT ID: NCT04495504 Completed - Clinical trials for Scheduled Cardiac Surgery

Administration of Ropivacaine by Bi-laterosternal Multiperforated Catheters Placed Before a Sternotomy for Cardiac Surgery

Pre-BLS-Sterno
Start date: July 22, 2020
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The sternotomy site is the most painful site after cardiac surgery. Local infiltration of ropivacaine through the multihole catheters in the bilaterosternal position (BLS) after sternotomy significantly reduces pain at rest and during mobilization, reduces opioids consumption, decreases postoperative complications, improves patient comfort and satisfaction and reduced hospital costs. In this study our hypothesis is to test the efficacity of local anesthetic administration via the catheters in the BLS position placed before the surgical incision.
