Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1) To assess the accuracy of needle tip in the landmark group by doing an ultrasound scan after the needle is inserted using landmark technique 2) To compare the success rate and efficacy of ilioinguinal / iiliohypogastric nerve block using ultrasound guidance and landmark techniqueTimepoint: 1)position of needle tip with respect to the nerve in landmark group 2) success rate and efficacy between the two techniques 3)Compare the analgesic requirements between the two groups.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the position of needle in relation to the ilioinguinal and iiliohypogastric nerve in landmark based techniqueTimepoint: 18 months
