Filter by:To compare the postoperative analgesic effect of two ultrasound guided approaches of quadratus lumborum block (QLB) (anterior and intramuscular) for radical cystectomy.
Studying the post-operative analgesic effect of dexamethasone as an adjuvant to bupivacaine giving intravenously and locally with ultrasound guided quadratus lumborum block(QLB) in pediatrics undergoing abdominal surgeries
The study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of QLB, as an anaesthetic method, for patients undergoing PCNL. Adult patients who agree to participate in the study will be included. Uncooperable patients, pregnant woman, active urinary tract infection, uncorrectable coagulation disorder, and those with known allergy to study medication will be excluded. Low dose spinal anaesthesia and Ultrasound-guided QLB will be performed. The success of the procedure, procedure-related complications, Intra- and post-operative hemodynamics, pain score, overall surgeon and patient satisfaction will be evaluated and reported.
The aim of this study is to compare between the efficacy of ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block and ultrasound guided quadratus lumborum block in managing acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
We aimed to investigate the effect of posterior quadratus lumborum block on postoperative atelectasis in inguinal hernia surgery in pediatric patients.
The purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block and iliohypogastric/ilioinguinal nerve block for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing cesarean section.
Abdominoplasty is a common surgical procedure in plastic surgery which causes postoperative pain and may delay patients' recovery. Surgery is potentially associated with a number of postoperative complications, whether cardiovascular, respiratory, infectious, thromboembolic, or digestive … Although they do not inevitably lead to a life-threatening prognosis, in many cases these complications delay post-operative recovery. Defined in the 1990s by Professor Henry Kehlet's Danish team, rapid rehabilitation after planned surgery is an approach to overall patient care that aims to rapidly restore previous physical and mental capacities and thus significantly reduce mortality and morbidity. Pain management is at the heart of this program and local anesthesia techniques are at the heart of early rehabilitation programs. Described for just over a decade, Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) have shown their effectiveness for analgesia in abdominal, or orthopedic, or obstetrical surgery. Considering the anatomical territory concerned, this locoregional anesthesia technique seems to be very interesting in abdominoplasty to allow early rehabilitation of the patient.
Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block can be used to provide effective analgesia during the postoperative period following a range of surgeries. TAP block administers local anesthetics between the T6 to L1 spinal nerve roots to stop the nerve signal and to alleviate pain for abdominal procedures 4, 5. The viscera are innervated by the vagal nerve (parasympathetic innervation) and by the splanchnic nerves (sympathetic innervation). The splanchnic nerves carry both visceral efferent and afferent nerve fibers. The sensory (or afferent) part of the splanchnic nerves reach the spinal column at certain spinal segments, It is possible to block central visceral pain conduction with thoracic paravertebral blockade or maybe even with the novel quadratus lumborum (QL) block. The effect of the QL block is believed to result from a spread of LA from its lumbar deposition cranially into the thoracic paravertebral space (TPVS), since Carney et al found traces of contrast agent in the TPVS following application of this block. Hence, the QL block would seem to be able to alleviate both somatic and visceral pain.10 The aim of this study is to compare between quadratus lumborum block, transversus abdominis plane block regarding perioperative analgesia after bladder cancer surgeries by measuring intraoperative hemodynamics, postoperative pain scores and morphine consumption in the first 24 h postoperative.
- Primary outcome: to compare the efficacy of Anterior subcostal versus Posterior approach in ultrasound guided Quadratus Lumborum Block. - Secondary outcome: to evaluate the efficacy of Quadratus Lumborum Block in the control of postoperative pain in patients undergoing Nephrectomy surgery, hemodynamics, any complications and patients' satisfaction..
There is currently a gap in the literature with regards to the utility of the QLB performed in conjunction with intrathecal morphine (ITM) for Caesarean section. The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of the QLB as part of a multi-modal analgesic approach in patients after caesarean section.
