Clinical Trial Summary

Caudal analgesia along with general anesthesia is a very popular regional technique for prolonged postoperative analgesia in different pediatric surgical procedures where the surgical site is sub-umbilical. Caudal anesthetics usually provide analgesia for approximately 4-6 hours. Recently, the use of spinal anesthesia in infants and children requiring surgeries of sub-umbilical region is gaining considerable popularity worldwide. - The ease of performance and the safety regarding cardio-respiratory functions makes spinal anesthesia as an alternative to general anesthesia in infants and children undergoing surgeries of sub-umbilical regions.


Clinical Trial Description

The historic view that young children neither respond to, nor remember, painful experiences to the same degree as adults is no longer thought to be true. About 40% of pediatric surgical patients experienced moderate or severe postoperative pain and 75% had insufficient analgesia. -Pediatric acute pain services use techniques of concurrent or co-analgesia based on four classes of analgesics, namely local anesthetics, opioids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and acetaminophen (paracetamol). Caudal analgesia along with general anesthesia is a very popular regional technique for prolonged postoperative analgesia in different pediatric surgical procedures where the surgical site is sub-umbilical. Caudal anesthetics usually provide analgesia for approximately 4-6 hours.
