Filter by:Caudal block (CB) has been the method used for years to achieve adequate postoperative analgesia in pediatric patients, which is one of the main responsibilities of an anesthetist. CB, which has been proven to provide effective analgesia for many different indications, is the most commonly performed neuraxial block technique for postoperative pain control in urogenital surgeries. However, in the following years, truncal nerve blocks are recommended for postoperative analgesia by the literature both for more effective analgesia and for preventing complications of CB that may prevent early mobilization and prolong hospital discharge
The external oblique intercostal (EOI) plane block is a novel approach upper abdominal wall analgesia. The EOI plane block can provide dermatomal sensory blockade of T6-T10 at the anterior axillary line and T6-T9 at the midline. It may be used for postoperative analgesia in obese patients because it is superficial and rapidly identifiable and performed in the supine position. the aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of external oblique intercostal plane block in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Researchers will compare the external oblique intercostal plane block group with control group to see if the EOI plane block is effective for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy.
To examine if perioperative pain/nausea/pruritus is altered when current standard analgesia for caesarian section (CS) is replaced with new guideline recommended analgesia.
The investigators hypothesis that ilioinguinal iliohypogastric nerves block could provide a potent modality of postoperative pain control as compared to Transverse Abdominis Plane block in open abdominal hysterectomy
Ultrasound-guided brachial plexus blocks (infraclavicular, axillary) can be applied as the main anesthetic method in hand and wrist surgeries, as well as single or combination block applications of the median, radial and ulnar nerves at the forearm level. Here, we aimed to retrospectively evaluate the perioperative and postoperative data of patients who underwent hand and wrist surgery under distal nerve blocks and brachial plexus blocks in our hospital.
Perioperative multimodal analgesia, defined by the use of various analgesic medications targeting different drug receptors, provides adequate pain relief with minimal or no opiate consumption. Therefore, it represents one of the cornerstone of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols, as the reduction in opioid use and the associated side effects may eventually reduce length of hospital stay, increase patient satisfaction and minimise the risk of long-term opioid use. Regional and neuraxial anesthesia techniques are key interventions to provide successful analgesia in the context of a multimodal strategy. Intrathecal morphine, for its effectiveness and potential of reducing the need of intravenous postoperative opioids, seems an attractive option in the case of hysterectomy, one of the most common major surgical procedures performed in women, associated with severe postoperative pain even when performed laparoscopically. The aim of our observational retrospective study is therefore to compare the analgesic efficacy and the safety of morphine administered by intrathecal route versus intravenous route during the first 48 hours after performance of laparoscopic/laparotomic hysterectomy.
Most hip fractures occur in the elderly population. Opioid-related respiratory depression is more common in the elderly population but can cause severe brain damage or death. Reducing the amount of opioids administered before, during and after surgery by adding a regional block may increase the postoperative quality of recovery, reduce chronic pain syndromes, and may potentially facilitate the participation of patients in rehabilitation. Despite their potential advantages, peripheral nerve blocks are still not widely used in people with hip fractures. The primary objective of this study is to compare patients' postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA), also known as a knee replacement, is a procedure performed to reduce severe pain and improve function of the joint. Managing postoperative pain can be challenging following TKA, and inadequate relief can lead to impaired mobility and persistent opioid use. Adductor canal nerve blocks (ACB), have shown significant benefit in improving postoperative analgesia and patient satisfaction. However, the local anesthetic used currently for these blocks only provides temporary relief that wears off within 24 hours. Liposomal bupivacaine is an extended-release local anesthetic agent that can provide up to 72 hours of pain relief, however it is unclear if its use is also effective in ACBs for knee surgery. The purpose of this study is to determine if liposomal bupivacaine is better than conventional bupivacaine in improving pain control, opioid consumption, and length of stay in patients scheduled for TKA.
To evaluate and compare the efficacy of single level injection erector spinae plane block versus double level injection Erector spinae plane block in laparotomies
Inguinal hernia surgery is the most common practice of pediatric surgeons in their clinical practice. As these operations are usually day case procedures, maintaining adequate analgesia is an important component of perioperative care and ERAS protocols. Caudal block, which is one of the analgesic methods used for postoperative pain, is the most frequently used in inguinal hernia surgery and its effectiveness has been proven. Erector spina plane block, which is easy to apply and has a low risk of side effects, is another tool used in the treatment of postoperative pain after inguinal hernia surgery. These are the procedures that are routinely applied in our center with the aim of intraoperative and postoperative effective analgesia.
