NCT04067024

Brief Summary

Pacemakers are currently placed at the Erasmus Hospital under local anesthesia performed by the surgeon, and the amount of local anesthetic agents sometimes reach the maximum permitted doses, with a risk of systemic toxicity. Moreover, these patients often present an associated conduction block. This represents a contraindication/constraint in the use of lidocaine 2% (local anesthesia frequently used by the surgeon to infiltrate). This study hypothesized that using a block of the supraclavicular nerve associated with a Pecs Block I. guided by ultrasound should require a smaller quantity of local anesthetic.
