简要总结
The purpose of this prospective randomized controlled trial is to compare the effectiveness of two different delivery methods for postoperative pain management following cardiac surgery requiring median sternotomy: intermittent programmed LA bolus versus continuous LA infusion through ESP catheters. Effectiveness of analgesia will be assessed based on the subjects' NRS pain scores and opioid consumption. The primary outcome measure will be the patients' opioid consumption over the course of the 72 hours following surgery. Secondary outcomes measures that will be evaluated include NRS pain scores, intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, and time to first dose of antiemetic in the postoperative period. It is hypothesized that the use of intermittent programmed LA boluses will provide better analgesia compared to continuous LA infusion through ESP catheters. The findings of this study will provide guidance regarding the optimal method of delivery for postoperative pain management in patients following cardiac surgery.

盲法说明
The only people who will know the treatment arm that has been assigned to the participant are the research coordinator who randomized them and the regional anesthesia team. The patient, nursing team, and research coordinator performing outcomes assessments will all be blinded to the treatment group.
