About this study

Official title: Pediatric Pectointercostal and ESP Block in Cardiac Surgery Surgery

American Society of Anaesthesiologist physical status II-III, aged between 2, 12 patients which underwent open cardiac surgery will recruited to this study. These subjects will Ultrasound (USG) guided erector spinae block will perform at T6 level (bilaterally) and pectointercostal plane block at 4-5 intercostal space to the all patient under general anaesthesia. Totally bupivacaine %0.25 2.5 mg/kg will use blocks. 2 ml %0.25 bupivacain will apply to the chest tube area at the end of surgery. 0.1 microgram/kg morphine will apply intravenously at last 30 minutes of surgery postoperative analgesia to all patients. Postoperative pain and agitation assessment will perform with FLACC and Watcha scores

Read the detailed description

American Society of Anaesthesiologist physical status II-III, aged between 2-12, 60 patients which underwent open cardiac surgery will recruited to this study. The patients were randomly allocated into two groups (1:1), via a computer-generated randomization list. Ultrasound (USG) guided erector spinae block will perform at T6 level (bilaterally) and pectointercostal plane block at 4-5 intercostal space to the 30 patients under general anaesthesia in Group block and block will not perform to the control group. Sevoflurane+remifentanil and O2/air combination will perform to the all patients during the surgery. Totally bupivacaine %0.25 2.5 mg/kg will use for blocks.2 ml %0.25 bupivacain will apply to the chest tube area at the end of surgery. 0.1 microgram/kg morphine intravenously will apply for postoperative analgesia to the all patients at last 30 minutes of surgery. Postoperative pain and agitation assessment will perform with FLACC and Watcha scores. FLACC, Watcha scores, morphine consumption and complications will record.Paracetamol 10 mg/kg will repeat to the all patients at the 12th of postoperative period, intravenously. The patient controlled anesthesia with morphin will apply to the all patients. If the FLACC score is higher than 4, morphine 0.015 mg/kg will administer intravenously.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pectointercostal and ESP blockDrug

    Also called Fascia plane blocks

    Both Pectointercostal at between 4th and 5th costa and ESP block will apply at thoracal 6 level to the patient.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Postoperative analgesia

    Postoperative analgesia will asses Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) score in (Postanesthesia care unit) PACU till the 24th hours postoperatively. FLACC score reflects pain score between 0-10. 0 means zero pain, 10 means worse pain score

    Measured: 24 hours in Postanesthesia care unit (PACU)

  2. Postoperative morphine consumption

    Postoperative morphine consumption will record till the postoperative 24 th hours

    Measured: 24 hours in Postanesthesia care unit (PACU)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Postoperative agitation

    The patients will asses with Watcha score for postoperative agitation in Postanesthesia care unit (PACU) till the postoperative 24th hours. Watcha score reflects delirium score (scale between 0 to 4). A child with a score of >2 on the Watcha score can be considered to have emergence delirium. (Points between 0-4) Watcah is one of the author's name.

    Measured: First 24 hours at Postanesthesia care unit (PACU)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Pectointercostal and ESP block in people with Postoperative Pain, run by Cukurova University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ebru Biricik (+905052420223, ebrubiricik01@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative analgesia (time frame: 24 hours in Postanesthesia care unit (PACU)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Apr 2023.
