Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the effectiveness of two different techniques of regional anaesthesia, Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block and Ilioinguinal/Iliohypogastric (II/IH) nerve block in paediatric patients undergoing unilateral ilioinginal surgeries.Timepoint: Assess the quality and overall efficacy of the both the study nerve blocks over 24 hours based on total analgesia time and rescue analgesic requirements—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
