Record History

  1. Study First Submitted
This prospective observational study aims to compare three routinely used postoperative analgesia techniques in patients undergoing open heart surgery: intravenous analgesia, thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA), and bilateral erector spinae plane block (ESPB). The primary objective is to evaluate the impact of these analgesia modalities on the development of chronic postoperative pain at 3 months. Secondary objectives include assessing postoperative acute pain scores, additional analgesic requirements, extubation time, mobilization time, intensive care unit stay, hospital stay, respiratory complications, and the relationship between acute and chronic pain. No intervention is assigned by protocol, and all analgesia methods are applied as part of routine clinical practice.
