NCT ID:
NCT04770961
Brief Summary:
The goal of this project is to study whether local anesthetic via the erector spinae plane (ESP) block may be beneficial in minimally invasive mitral valve surgery (MIMVS).
Detailed Description:
This is a double blinded randomized controlled trial comparing a control group receiving cryoablation and sham block with an intervention group receiving cryoablation and ESP catheter. The primary outcome is total oral morphine equivalent (OME) consumption within the first 48 hours of recovery including intra-operative usage. Secondary outcomes to be evaluated would include pain scores, functional milestones like time to extubation, time to first PO intake, time to ambulation, time to chest tube removal, length of ICU and total hospital stay, complications, and patient satisfaction.
