Ultrasound Guided Bilateral Pectoral Nerve Block Versus Bilateral Transverse Thoracic Plane Block In Pediatric Patients Undergoing Corrective Cardiac Surgeries Requiring Cardiopulmonary Bypass Via Median Sternotomy
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
This randomized, double-blinded, study aims to compare the efficacy of intraoperative and postoperative pain control while using bilateral ultrasound guided the pectoral nerves (PECS) versus transversus thoracic muscle plane block (TTPB) in pediatric patients undergoing corrective cardiac surgeries.

Control
Patients will receive o.5 ug/kg/hr fentanyl infusion all through the whole operation.
Pectoral nerves (PECS)
This group will receive fentanyl infusion at a dose of (0.5 μg/kg/hr) all through the whole operation, plus ultrasound guided bilateral pectoral nerves (PECS) Block which will be done by injecting 0.4 ml/kg (1:1 solution of bupivacaine 0.25% and lidocaine 1%) at each side .
Transversus thoracic muscle plane block (TTPB)
This group will receive fentanyl infusion at a dose of (0.5 μg/kg/hr) all through the whole operation, plus Ultrasound guided bilateral transversus thoracic muscle plane block (TTPB) which will be done by injecting 0.4 ml/kg (1:1 solution of bupivacaine 0.25% and lidocaine 1%) at each side .
