Filter by:The study is a prospective, randomised, controlled double-blind clinical trial. The primary aim was to evaluate the efficacy of caudal block and ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric nerve block with PI and PVI in pediatric inguinal hernia operations under general anesthesia. The secondary aim is to evaluate postoperative analgesic agent consumption and to evaluate the correlation of PI and PVI values with hemodynamic parameters. Pediatric patients between the ages of 2-8 years who are planned to undergo elective inguinal hernia operation will be included in the study. After the patients scheduled for inguinal hernia surgery are admitted to the operating room, routine monitoring will be performed as performed. In addition to routine monitoring, a Radical-97TM Pulse CO-OximeterTM (Masimo Corp, Irvine, CA, USA) probe will be attached to the toe to monitor PI and PVI. Patients will be given anaesthetic drugs as routinely administered. After LMA by randomisation by closed envelope method, caudal or ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric nerve block will be performed by an experienced anaesthetist as the investigators routinely perform in patients other than the control group.. PI, PVI, pulse, saturation, noninvasive arterial pressure values will be recorded before induction, after induction, after LMA, before applied block, after applied block (after surgical incision) at 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes and at the end of anaesthesia. All patients will be given paracetamol 10mg/kg iv, which is a routine intravenous (iv) analgesic, at the end of surgery. In case of perioperative complications, the complications will be recorded. Flacc pain scale (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) will be applied at 0, 2, 6 hours postoperatively. Postoperative analgesic use and discharge time will be recorded. Flacc pain scale will be performed by an anaesthetist blinded to the study.
Caudal epidural block CEB is the most commonly performed neuraxial block to provide effective pain relief and analgesia in patients undergoing infra-umbilical pediatric surgery. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of adding CEB to general anesthesia in terms of intra- and post-operative pain management. Design: Double-unblinded. Prospective. randomized. Study, Setting: salmanyia medical complex. intraoperative, postoperative recovery room Methods: A total of 72 patients American Society of Anesthesiology physical status classification ASA 1. Patients were equally allocated into two groups Group A and with CEB and Group B without CEB, aged two months to six years. respectively, over a study period of six months. Both groups were compared based on hemodynamic stability, level of sedation, analgesia need, pain score, and parental satisfaction. Postoperative pain was evaluated by four different pain scales.
This randomized, controlled study is designed to estimate the effects of different volumes of plain bupivacaine 0.25% caudal block on different hemodynamic parameters assessed by electrical cardiometry.
Single-centre observational study to analyse whether there is a difference in post-operative pain scores and set up time when comparing caudal block with local wound infiltration
Caudal anesthesia is a commonly used neuraxial anesthesia method for children. Injection of a certain volume of fluid into the epidural space for cauda anesthesia may push some cerebrospinal fluid towards the head, which may lead to mild increase of pressures inside the head. Such mild changes are compensated well by healthy individuals and no clinical sequel is seen, however at-risk populations may be affected. We aim to see how different amounts of fluid injected into the epidural space may change two clinical parameters affected by intracranial pressure to determine if a lower volume is safer than a higher one.
Detailed study of ultrasonographic caudal epidural anatomy
This study is a prospective study of epidural pressure changes when local anesthetic is injected from the caudal route. All patients will receive the same weight based volume dose of local anesthetic after induction of general anesthesia, and a CVP transducer will be attached to the standard caudal needle for measurement of pressure: under the skin, after entering the epidural space, and every 15 seconds for 3 minutes after completion of injection with the needle in situ. The placement of the caudal epidural will follow current standard of care and administration, the only variation will be the addition of a pressure transducer to the stopcock where the local anesthetic syringe is attached that will allow for pressure monitoring.
The aim of this study is to test an efficacy and safety of supplemented by Morphine caudal anesthesia in children who undergo renal surgery in our department.
The purpose of this study is to determine the changes of Dorsalis Pedis Artery Flow Pattern after Caudal Block in Children: Observational Study Using a Duplex Sonography.
