Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Cardiac surgery is associated with pain in the post-operative period. We plan to conduct a study of local anesthetic, ropivacaine, infusion into the sternal wound in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery to see if it will be safe and result in improved pain control and reduced time to extubation, duration of ICU and hospital stay.
