Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Pectoral nerves block type 2 (PECS2)
The intervention is the PECS2 block, a previously developed modality for preventing pain in the anterior chest.
The medication used in the block is Ropivicaine 0.5%, Lidocaine 1% + 1:100,000 epinephrine, and 40 μg dexmedetomidine.
Patients will receive a standard post-operative pain regimen per institutional protocol.
|
Superficial peripheral nerve block placed at the interfascial plane between the pectoralis major and minor muscles and the plane between the pectoralis minor and serrates anterior muscles.
Targeted nerves include the lateral and medial pectoral nerves in addition to the long thoracic nerve, thoracodorsal, and thoracic intercostal nerves from T2 to T6.
15 mL on each side of anterior chest for a total of 30mL
10 mL on each side of anterior chest for a total of 20mL
10 mL
|
No Intervention: Control Group: standard post-operative pain regimen
Patients will receive a standard post-operative pain regimen per institutional protocol.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Score on Critical-Care Pain Assessment Tool (CPOT)
Time Frame: 24 hours
|
Measured at least hourly prior to extubation.
This is an 8-item pain inventory seen as one of the top modalities for measuring pain in critical care patients.
Minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 8 (higher score = higher pain level).
|
24 hours
|
Score on Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: 24 hours
|
Measured at least hourly after extubation.
10 point pain analog scale (0-10, where 0 is no pain and 10 is highest pain level)
|
24 hours
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Ventilatory duration post-operatively
Time Frame: 0-6 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is a time scale with the time of 0 corresponding to the "out of operating room" time and the final time being the time period from the 0 time to the time when the patient is extubated.
|
0-6 hours
|
Duration of surgery
Time Frame: 4-6 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR (Electronic Medical Records).
The scale is a time scale with the time of 0 corresponding to the "first incision" time and the final time being the time period from the 0 time to the time when the PECS2 block is completed.
|
4-6 hours
|
Duration of operating room time
Time Frame: 5-7 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is a time scale with the time of 0 corresponding to the "into operating room" time and the final time being the "out of operating room" time
|
5-7 hours
|
Total intraoperative fentanyl dose
Time Frame: Intraoperative duration
|
Documented by anesthesia physician as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR. The scale is an absolute dosing scale in grams. It will be corrected for by weight (kilograms). |
Intraoperative duration
|
Duration of ICU stay
Time Frame: 24-48 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is time.
Time zero is "out of operating" time and end time is time of downgrade or discharge from the hospital.
|
24-48 hours
|
Duration of hospital stay
Time Frame: 5-7 days post-operative
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is a time with time zero corresponding to admission to hospital time and end time being the time of discharge from the hospital.
|
5-7 days post-operative
|
Time to first opiate dose for breakthrough pain
Time Frame: 24-48 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is time.
Time zero will be "out of operating room" time and end time will be time of administration of first opiate pain medication.
|
24-48 hours
|
Time to first analgesic post-operatively
Time Frame: 24-48 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is time.
Time zero will be "out of operating room" time and end time will be time of administration of first breakthrough pain medication.
|
24-48 hours
|
Number of episodes of post-operative breakthrough pain
Time Frame: 24-48 hours
|
Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is an absolute number documenting the number of documented episodes of breakthrough pain.
|
24-48 hours
|
Total post-operative opiate dose
Time Frame: 5-7 days post-operative
|
Documented by registered nurse as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR.
The scale is an absolute dosing scale in grams.
It will be corrected for by weight (kilograms).
|
5-7 days post-operative
|
Score on Critical-Care Pain Assessment Tool (CPOT) at 24-48h
Time Frame: 24-48 hours
|
This is an 8-item pain inventory seen as one of the top modalities for measuring pain in critical care patients. Minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 8 (higher score = higher pain level). Documented by nursing, physician assistants, physician, and/or respiratory staff as standard of care - will be retrieved in the EMR |
24-48 hours
|
Score on Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at 24-48h
Time Frame: 24-48 hours
