Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of the Pectoralis Nerve (PECS) block for CIED insertion.

Detailed description

Implantable Cardiac Electronic Device (CIED) insertion can be performed under local anesthesia, regional anesthesia, or general anesthesia. Novel regional blocks may improve pain management for such patients and can shorten their length of stay in the hospital. At the study, the investigators aimd to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of the PECS block for CIED insertion procedure.

Conditions

• Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device
• Nerve Block
• Anesthesia
• Analgesia
