Detailed Description

This is a single-center, randomized and prospective trial of all patients undergoing S-ICD implantation. Subjects will only be eligible for this study if they are ≥ 18 years of age and eligible to undergo S-ICD implant at Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital. They will be randomized to receive either surgical infiltration of local anesthetic or truncal blocks. Intraoperative and postoperative data will be collected including total opioid use, pain scores postprocedure, total postoperative narcotic need and length of stay. The procedures involved for the study are the placement of the described truncal blocks or wound infiltration. Data to be collected are patient demographics, history of present illness, past medical history, and pain management techniques required (i.e non-narcotics and narcotics use). In addition, age, race, gender and BMI will also be collected. Intraoperative analgesia requirements, postoperative analgesia requirements, duration of procedure and length of stay will also be collected.
