Different Concentrations of Bupivacaine in Erector Spinae Plane Block in Hip Surgeries

Postoperative Pain Clinical Trial

Official title: Comparison of the Analgesic Efficacy of Three Different Concentrations of Bupivacaine in Ultrasound Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block in Hip Surgeries: Randomized Control Trial

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The prevalence of hip replacement surgery is increasing nowadays. Patients are usually older age and suffer from comorbidities may be an anesthetic and analgesic challenge. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a newly described technique that is has been demonstrated in previous studies for chronic and acute pain treatment. The exact volume and concentration of local anesthetic (LA) to be used in ESPB is not well established.

Clinical Trial Description

Aim of the work is to compare the analgesic effects of three different concentrations of the same volume of local anesthetics; 30 ml of 0.50% vs 0.375% vs 0.25% bupivacaine in patients undergoing hip surgeries.

Prospective randomized double blinded study that will be conducted in at Kasr El-Ainy hospital orthopedic surgical theater.

patients, undergoing hip surgeries will be randomly allocated into three equal groups, each (n=44), using computerized generated random tables

1. Group F: 44 patients will receive single shot erector spinae block at the level of L4 with 30 ml 0.50% bupivacaine.

2. Group M: 44 patients will receive single shot erector spinae block at the level of L4 with 30 ml 0.375% bupivacaine.

3. Group H: 44 patients will receive single shot of erector spinae block at the level of L4with 30ml 0.25% bupivacaine . ;
