Brief Summary: Acute and chronic pain after cardiac surgery is a common problem that negatively affects quality of life. Postoperative pain after cardiac surgery is most intense in the first two days and decreases in the following period. However, postoperative pain with incomplete management in the acute period may become chronic. This may negatively affect the patient's quality of life. Although central blocks such as thoracic epidural and paravertebral blocks are considered the gold standard in analgesia control, the advantages of thoracic plan blocks, which are more superficial due to peroperative heparinisation; coagulation disorders; and procedural difficulties, are undeniable. Thoracic plane blocks, which can also be used in patients receiving anticoagulant and/or antiplatelet therapy, have recently been used for acute pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of thoracic plane blocks on extubation time, pain scores, intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stays in patients undergoing median sternotomy.
Detailed Description: The study will proceed in three arms. The first group is the control group and will receive total intravenous anaesthesia as infusion after peroperative induction until the patient leaves the operating room. The second group will receive ultrasound-guided parasternal superficial plan block after induction. The third group will receive ultrasound-guided parasternal deep plan block. Extubation times, additional analgesic needs, pain scores, intensive care unit duration and hospital discharge times will be compared in the three groups during intensive care unit follow-up. After extubation, patient-controlled analgesia will be applied for 24 hours (with pca infusion pump device).
