Analgesia in Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Programmed Intermittent Bolus Infusions of Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Paravertebral Block

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2024-10-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Paravertebral block (PVB) has been regarded as effective regimen for pain control after cardiac surgery. As a novel analgesia technique, erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been reported to provide effective analgesia after thoracic and cardiac surgery. We hypothesized that the ESPB is non-inferior to PVB in treating pain in minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass surgery.
