Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this study is to compare patients outcome in two groups. the first group will be applied pecto-intercostal fascial block additional to general anesthesia and the second group will not.

This is a single-center, prospective, observational trial to study the efficacy of Pecto-intercostal Fascial Block (PIFB) in patients undergoing pediatric congenital cardiac surgery requiring median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass. The children are aged between 6 months to 12 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score 2 or 3.

The main question it aims to answer are:

The investigators' first question is if applying pecto-intercostal fascial block just after anesthesia induction reduces postoperative pain status. Secondly, if this pain status makes any reduction in preoperative opioid consumption. The investigators aim to find out; if there is any difference in opioid consumption during operation and postoperative 24-hour, postoperative Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale, length of intensive care unit and hospital stays, and other complications.
