Clinical Trial Summary

Nalbuphine has been used as an adjuvant to bupivacaine in intrathecal, epidural, caudal anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks showing an increase in the efficacy and the duration of postoperative analgesia.The aim of this study is evaluation of the effect of nalbuphine when used as an adjuvant to a local anesthetic mixture in peribulbar block undergoing cataract surgery


Description:

44 patients (22 in each group) scheduled for elective cataract surgery using peribulbar block. Patients of Group N received local anesthetics received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU), and 4mg of Nalbuphine in 1 ml of saline (total 8 ml) and patients of Group C received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine, 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU) and1 ml saline (total 8 ml).

Addition of nalbuphine to bupivacaine in peribulbar block is associated with reduced the time of onset of globe akinesia, increased the duration of globe akinesia and analgesia with better postoperative pain relief

Intervention

Drug:
Nalbuphine
Both groups received 8 ml solution for the peribulbar block, Patients of group N was received a mixture of 3 ml of 2% lidocaine, 4 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with hyaluronidase (75IU)(16) and 4mg of nalbuphine in 1 ml normal saline. Patients of group C was received a mixture of 3 ml of 2% lidocaine, 4 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with hyaluronidase (75 IU) and 1 ml normal saline. Nalbuphine (20mg amp.) was prepared in 0.9% sodium chloride in 5mL syringe. If the block was inadequate after 10 minutes, a 2-4 ml supplementation of local anesthetics was given by the same technique and the patient was excluded from the study. After adequate analgesia (loss of sensation to touch by a small cotton wool) and akinesia, the surgeon was allowed to start the surgery
