Multimodal Fascial Plane Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Isolated CABG Surgery
Sponsor: Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi
Summary
Postoperative pain following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) via median sternotomy remains a significant clinical problem and is associated with increased opioid consumption and postoperative complications. Fascial plane blocks have emerged as part of multimodal analgesia strategies in cardiac surgery. This prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blinded study aims to evaluate the effect of an induction-time multimodal fascial plane block package-consisting of bilateral superficial parasternal block, bilateral serratus anterior plane block, and adductor canal block-on postoperative analgesia, opioid consumption, and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing elective isolated CABG with saphenous vein graft harvesting. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the multimodal fascial plane block package in addition to standard postoperative analgesia or standard postoperative analgesia alone. The primary outcome is total opioid consumption within the first 24 postoperative hours. Secondary outcomes include pain scores, time to first opioid requirement, extubation time, postoperative pulmonary complications, atrial fibrillation, and length of ICU and hospital stay.

Interventions
Multimodal Fascial Plane Block Package
Participants will receive ultrasound-guided bilateral superficial parasternal block, bilateral serratus anterior plane block, and adductor canal block after induction of general anesthesia and before surgical incision.
Standard Postoperative Analgesia
Participants will receive standard institutional perioperative and postoperative analgesia without regional fascial plane block.
