Filter by:This study is designed to compare the analgesic effectiveness of caudal analgesia to ilioinguinal regional analgesia techniques in children undergoing inguinal surgeries. Both techniques will be done under ultrasound gaudiness, using the same local anesthesia. 128 patients will be included in this study, 64 for each technique. This study aims to know the best regional analgesia technique in children undergoing inguinal surgeries, reduction in rescue analgesia postoperatively, postoperative length of stay, and early resumption of postoperative activity. The patients will be followed up 30 minutes after the end of anesthesia in PACU, postoperatively in Ward at 2 Hours, 3 hours, 6 hours from the end of anesthesia, and or at the time of discharge from the ward & on days 2 and 7. Patient privacy and safety will be respected at all times. An interim analysis will be done after recruiting 25% of cases (16 cases) in both arms. Once the sample size is reached, the data will be sent for statistical analysis with coded patient identity. Based on study findings, the practice will be optimized with the aim of improvement in pain relief, reduction in opioid requirements, and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), reducing the bed occupancy time in the hospital.
The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block provide a local anesthesia drug diffusion between the transverse abdominis muscle and the internal oblique muscle. TAP block reaches the anterior rami of spinal nerves from T7 to L1 involved in the innervation of homolateral abdominal wall. The transversus abdominis plane block has shown promise for perioperative analgesia, but data on the optimal dose regimen are limited.Following previous research of optimal dose of local anesthesic solution, the investigators aim to evaluate if a "volume effect" would lead to a better diffusion of the local anesthesic solution to the overall nervous roots. The local anesthesia drug choosen is levobupivacaine with a unique posology of 0,4 mg/kg (either 0,2 ml/kg of 0,2% levobupivacaine for "small volume" group or 0,4 ml/kg of 0,1% levobupivacaine for "high volume" group).With the same dose of levobupivacaine, this study aims to assess the impact of volume effect on analgesia efficiency as well as the security as after ultrasound TAP block on one to five years' old children who undergo a peritoneal-vaginal duct surgery.
