简要总结
We aim to determine whether pectoral nerve block (PECS) performed after induction of anesthesia but before surgical incision results less opioid use in the post operative period compared with local infiltration alone in children undergoing Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) surgery.
详细描述
The current anaesthetic management of CIED surgery at Sickkids is local anaesthetic infiltration by the EP cardiologist or a Pectoral nerve block (PECS) on an ad-hoc basis depending on the anaesthesiologist on a case by case basis. It is not known whether one technique provides better post- operative pain control and fewer adverse events than the other. In either case, the patient receives opioids as required during and after the procedure. Patients typically go home with a prescription for opioids to be taken for the first few days after surgery.
The PECS block is a recognized effective anaesthetic technique used for both intraoperative and postoperative pain control in adult breast surgery, chest wall procedures as well as one case report for CIED implantation and a small series in paediatric cardiac surgery. The advantages of the PECS block in these surgical procedures includes improved analgesia and reduced opioid use.
The investigators plan to conduct an RCT with two groups.
Group 1 will receive a PECS block (using 0.8 ml/kg of 0.25% bupivacaine with epinephrine 1: 200000 divided in two equal volumes between the two planes) by the anaesthesiologist and local infiltration (up to 0.2 ml/kg of 0.25% bupivacaine with epinephrine 1:200000) by the surgeon.
Group 2 will receive local infiltration (up to 0.8 ml/kg 0.25 % bupivacaine with epinephrine 1:200000) by the surgeon alone.

- •No parental or patient consent
- •Allergy to bupivacaine

研究组 & 干预措施
PECS block
A PECS block of 0.25 % bupivacaine with epinephrine 1:200000 (below the toxic dose limit of 3 mg/kg) in divided doses to cover the fascial planes identified in PECS I and PECS II. At the completion of surgery, the wound will be infiltrated with up to 0.2 ml/kg of 0.25 % bupivacaine into the wound.
干预措施: Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by PECS block and wound infiltration (Drug)
Infiltration
At the completion of surgery, the EP cardiologist will infiltrate the wound with up to 0.8 ml/kg of 0.25 % bupivacaine with epinephrine 1:200000.
干预措施: Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by wound infiltration only (Drug)
