PECS Study for CIED Implantation Surgery
Sponsor: The Hospital for Sick Children
Summary
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.

Interventions
Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by PECS block and wound infiltration
The anesthesiologist will administer bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by PECS block after induction of anesthesia before surgical incision. The EP cardiologist will also administer bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by infiltrating the wound after surgery is complete.
Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by wound infiltration only
The EP cardiologist will administer Bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200000 by infiltrating the wound after surgery is complete.
