Brief Summary

Serum lactate level is a key indicator of tissue perfusion. Parasternal blockade is associated with reduced postoperative inflammatory response by inhibiting stress response, leading to better outcomes. Elevated lactate levels help identify patients at risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality. This analytical cross-sectional study evaluated the association between parasternal blockade and serum lactate levels in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery in 2022 at Specialty Hospital CMNO. Patients with and without parasternal block were compared for changes in serum lactate levels during and after anesthesia within the first 24 hours.
