Filter by:This study aims to compare PENG block and LV-ISBP block in the incidence of phrenic nerve block, duration of postoperative analgesia, time to first analgesic request (VAS > 30 mm), pain scores, and side effects.
This study aims to compare a single shot of bilateral ultrasound-guided EOI block and ESPB in terms of intraoperative opioid consumption, postoperative pain control in the first 24 hours, and the need for rescue analgesics.
Optimal pain control with limited muscle weakness is paramount for a swift initiation of physical therapy and ambulation. Fascia iliaca compartment block (FIC) has been recommended since it offers the best pain control with low risk of motor block. Pericapsular nerve group block (PENG) with lateral femoral cutaneous block (LFCN) has been proposed as an effective alternative to FIB that offers similar pain control with a considerably lower risk of motor block. The aim of this study is to compare the afore mentioned blocks and determine which one yielded the least degree of quadriceps femoris muscle weakness and the better pain control (the lowest NRS score with least need for opioids).
This study aims to compare MS-SCBPB and SCBPB in the duration of postoperative analgesia, time to first analgesic request (VAS ≥40 mm), pain scores, motor power, and side effects.
Regional anesthesia decreases postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption, and may prevent chronic pain after surgery in patients undergoing surgery. However, some patients experience an increase of pain into the severe range when the nerve block wears off, also known as rebound pain. The investigators are studying if a nerve block (numbing injection) in the arm causes hyperalgesia (increased pain) when the nerve block is wearing off.
Jugular vein collapsibility index and shock indices (Shock index, Modified Shock Index, Diastolic Shock Index) may be useful in estimating post spinal hypotension in cesarean section operations. Evaluation on the accuracy and effectiveness of these indices can contribute to the early diagnosis and management of hypotension. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of shock indices in predicting the possibility of post spinal hypotension in cesarean section operations.
Pediatric orthopedic surgical procedures require a multimodal approach for anesthetic management that maximizes both patient comfort and safety. (1) A multimodal strategy for perioperative pain management is often required for children undergoing orthopedic surgery including pharmacological methods, and regional anesthesia (R.A). (1,2) Recent guidelines published jointly by the European Society of Regional Anesthesia (ESRA) and the American Society of Regional Anesthesia (ASRA) recommend that regional blocks can and should preferably be performed under general anesthesia or deep sedation in children of all ages. (3,4) Many studies investigated the safety of regional pediatric nerve blocks These studies showed pediatric complication rates consistent with adult data. These complications include nerve injury, intravascular injection and local anesthetics systemic toxicity (LAST), and acute compartmental syndrome. these complications have been minimized by ultrasound-guided nerve block in pediatrics. (5) The annual incidence of pediatric femoral fractures is estimated to be 19 per 100,000. Femoral fractures are usually associated with other injuries such as intracranial hemorrhages, lung contusions, hemothorax or pneumothorax, and other organ injuries which make regional anesthesia (R.A) is preferable as a sole technique or combined with general anesthesia to decrease the overall dosage of anesthetics and opioids. (6) The most tangible advantage of RA is profound and prolonged pain relief. Alternatively, pain relief can be given by opioids which are known to cause nausea, vomiting, respiratory depression, decrease in gut motility and increase apneic spells in the population vulnerable to the same. Nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs can affect the immature renal system adversely. RA offers pain relief without changing the physiological milieu. (7) Fascia iliaca Compartment Block (FICB) has been widely used for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing hip, femoral bone, and knee surgical procedures. FICB was first introduced by Dalens et al in 1989. This regional plane block technique was used to block the femoral nerve and the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve of the thigh and the obturator nerve with a high level of safety and success, well-suited for the anterolateral surgeries of the thigh. (8,9) Femoral nerve block (FNB) has been widely used for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing hip, and femoral bone surgical procedures, it provides anesthesia and analgesia for the lateral aspect of the thigh and the femur bone. (10,11) FICB has a wider range of anesthesia and analgesia in lower limbs compared to FNB. but the use of dilute injectate in FICB may minimize sensory and motor block than FNB. (1,16) This study will be conducted to evaluate the effects of FICB vs FNB in pain control in pediatrics undergoing femoral fracture repair surgery.
Primary aim: observe the incidence of systemic toxicity from local anesthetic (LAST) after performing fascial blocks in patients undergoing elective cardio-thoracic and abdominal surgery. Secondary aim: describe the pharmacokinetic profile of the local anesthetic (ropivacaine) and assess peri-procedural complications, post-operative pain and opiate consumption in the first 24 hours.
The patients will be randomly assigned to standard therapy or standard therapy+ESP nerve block. After surgery pain level and narcotic consumption will be measured, and vital signs and side effects will bo monitored for up to 72 hours. 6 months after surgery a phone interview will be conducted to asses chronic pain
Dexamethasone will be used as an adjunct to local anesthetics (bupivacaine) to prolong the duration of laparoscopically-placed transversus-abdominis plane blocks in elective colorectal resection.
