Chronic Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy of Intermittent Superficial Parasternal Intercostal Plane Block on Postoperative Pain Control in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery With Median Sternotomy - EPOCH Randomized Clinical Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether the use of intermittent superficial parasternal intercostal plane blocks reduces opioid usage in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with median sternotomy. Participants randomized to the intervention group will receive the blocks with 0.2% ropivacaine administered via catheters placed in the superficial parasternal intercostal plane bilaterally under ultrasound guidance. Researchers will compare this group with a control group given 0.9% saline through similarly placed catheters. The primary outcome will be cumulative postoperative opioid use (measured as Milligram Morphine Equivalent (MME)) up to 72 hours following catheter insertion.
This trial is comparing the use of 0.2% ropivacaine and 0.9% saline through a parasternal intercostal plane block and to measure whether there are any tangible changes in: 1. cumulative postoperative opioid use from catheter insertion until hospital discharge - measured as Milligram Morphine Equivalent (MME) 2. median pain score - measured at rest and with coughing using a standardized numerical rating scale - over 72 hours post catheter insertion 3. delirium - assessed twice daily using institutional scores up to 72 hours following catheter insertion. ;
