Study Summary
The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate effectiveness of a novel regional anesthesia technique developed at the investigators institution, as part of a quality improvement initiative, to assist with multilevel thoracic pain control in post-Nuss procedure patients. The investigators hypothesized that the local anesthetic infusion via bilateral multiperforated soaker catheters placed at extrathoracic sub-paraspinal muscle location under ultrasound guidance would significantly improve pain control, as reflected by the decrease in pain intensity score, reduction in opiate requirement and improvement infunctional rehabilitation measure scores in patients who underwent the Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum repair. However, the goal of this pilot study was not to detect a statistically significant difference in the primary outcomes between control and treatment groups (as the number of study subjects was chosen out of necessity of what could be completed within a specified time period), but to estimate the parameters which allows appropriate power and sample size calculations for a future multi-institutional study.
