Impact of Bilateral Deep Parasternal Intercostal Plane Block on Intraoperative Opioid Consumption in Open Heart Surgery

Impact of Bilateral Deep Parasternal Intercostal Plane Block on Intraoperative Opioid Consumption in Open Heart Surgery: a Prospective, Double-blind Randomized Controlled Study

This study aims to assess the impact of bilateral deep parasternal intercostal plane block on intraoperative opioid consumption in open heart surgery

Study Overview

Detailed Description

High-dose opioid is associated with various side effects such as nausea, vomiting, urinary retention, and respiratory depression. The neuraxial block (intrathecal, epidural) and peripheral nerve block are regional anesthesia techniques which have the potential to reduce intraoperative opioid consumption. The deep parasternal intercostal plane block is fascial plane block which intended to block anterior cutaneous branch of intercostal nerves.

This study is a double-blind randomized controlled trial. Thirty subjects will be recruited with consecutive sampling method. Eligible subjects with signed informed consent will be randomized into two groups. The first group is the treatment group who will receive bilateral deep parasternal intercostal plane block after induction of anesthesia and the second group will be the control group who will not receive any regional anesthesia. After surgery, extubation time, adverse event (nausea, vomiting), and intensive care unit length of stay will be recorded for both groups.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: deep parasternal plane block
Subjects will receive bilateral deep parasternal intercostal plane block after induction of anesthesia.
Twenty milliliters of 0.25% bupivacaine will be placed bilaterally in the fascial plane between internal intercostal muscle and transversus thoracis muscle at intercostal space 4 or 5, lateral from sternum, with ultrasound guidance using high-frequency linear transducer.
Skin puncture with needle will be performed on the same location as the treatment group without administration of local anesthetics.
Placebo Comparator: control
subjects will receive skin puncture with needle on the same location as the treatment group without administration of local anesthetics after induction of anesthesia,
Twenty milliliters of 0.25% bupivacaine will be placed bilaterally in the fascial plane between internal intercostal muscle and transversus thoracis muscle at intercostal space 4 or 5, lateral from sternum, with ultrasound guidance using high-frequency linear transducer.
Skin puncture with needle will be performed on the same location as the treatment group without administration of local anesthetics.
