This study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of external oblique intercostal plane block, a new block method, in the treatment of postoperative pain occurring after laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations, which are frequently and widely performed today. It aims to add new applications to multimodal analgesia methods, which provide the greatest contribution to the early recovery process after surgery, and to contribute to the early recovery process by increasing patient satisfaction.
Nowadays, hundreds of information about regional anesthesia are accessed from any internet search engine when a question is written about the methods of anesthesia that can be applied during C/S. This information may have positive or negative effects on the patient, as well as include uncontrolled, unsupervised comments, articles and images. Our aim is primarily to evaluate whether our patients are exchanging information via social media or the internet and the effects of these shares on their concerns.
This study proposes to evaluate the efficacy of single shot erector spinae block (ESB) versus single shot quadratus lumborum block (QLB) when used in conjunction with continuous lumbar plexus block (LPB) for postoperative analgesia in children and adolescents undergoing unilateral hip surgical procedures. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of the QL vs. ESP blocks as supplements to the lumbar plexus block with respect to pain control outcomes after hip PAO surgery. Both blocks are safe and easy to perform. There is currently no comparative, prospective data concerning the use of these two blocks for hip surgery. The investigational hypothesis is that there will be no clinical difference in the amount of opioid consumed or the overall pain control offered by these two block options.
Pediatric circumcision has been realized since the beginning of human civilization. In the United States, a 2014 review revealed a 81% prevalence of men 14-59 years old being circumcised. Circumcision surgery is mostly performed on an ambulatory basis. The best analgesia technique for this procedure has yet to be determined. Local, regional, general anaesthesia or even combinations have been described. The Dorsal Penile Nerve Block (DPNB) has been shown to be superior to topical analgesia in neonatal circumcision. A 2008 Cochrane review showed no difference in pain scores between caudal block and DPNB, but described more motor block with caudal block. For this reason, the 2017 Canadian Urological Association guidelines review recommends using DPNB with a ring block as a standard of care for neonatal circumcision with-out general anaesthesia. However, DPNB does not provide reliable coverage of the ventral surface of the penis and frenulum. Pudendal nerve block (PNB) is another regional anaesthesia technique gaining in popularity with the now widespread use of ultrasound guidance. However, it is still unclear if PNB can give better outcomes than DPNB. The ultrasound-guided pudendal nerve block has only been recently described and was not reviewed as an option at the time of the guidelines writing. PNB can be performed using surface landmarks, with nerve stimulation or with ultra-sound-guidance. It has already been proven to have lower surgical complication rates than caudal block for hypospadias surgeries. Regarding DPNB, a variety of techniques have been described using either surface landmarks or ultrasound guidance. In the past ten years, two RCTs in Lebanon and Turkey compared PNB and DPNB for penile surgeries, showing lower pain scores and lower narcotics consumption in the pudendal nerve block group. None of these studies used ultrasound-guidance. The investigators perform more than a hundred pediatric circumcisions yearly for medical indications. The surgery is done under general anaesthesia in association with either PNB or DPNB, depending on the anesthesiologist's preference. The primary objective is to compare analgesia between the two blocks during and after pediatric circumcisions to minimize post-operative pain. The research team will compare peri and postoperative pain in children receiving either ultrasound-guided pudendal nerve block or ultrasound-guided dorsal penile nerve block for circumcision surgery.
