    24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Bilateral transversus thoracis muscle plane block

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Regional block will be performed after induction of anesthesia by anesthesiologist on duty who is not part of investigators for this study. The block will be performed in between intercostal space 4 and 5, lateral from sternum, with ultrasound guided

Procedure: Bilateral transversus thoracis muscle plane block

Control

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Needle will be put in the superficial skin on the same area as transversus thoracis muscle plane block area without any drugs injected into the injection area

Procedure: Control

Interventions

The block will be performed in between intercostal space 4 and 5, lateral from sternum, with ultrasound guided. Twenty milliliters bupivacaine 0.5% 1mg/body weight will be injected between internal intercostal muscle and transversus thoracis muscle on both sides.

Bilateral transversus thoracis muscle plane block
ControlPROCEDURE

A needle will be place in the similar area to the transversus thoracis muscle plane block, but no drugs will be injected to the area

Control
