Nalbuphine,Fentanyl and Local Anesthetic Mixture
Conditions
Brief 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 4 mg Nalbuphine when used as an adjuvant to a local anesthetic mixture in peribulbar block undergoing posterior chamber surgery in adult patients and comparing it with adding Fentanyl 20 μg to LAM and LAM alone
Detailed description
120 patients (40 in each group) scheduled for elective posterior chamber surgery using peribulbar block. Patients of Group N 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 F received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU), and 20 μg fentanyl in 1 ml saline (total 8 ml) and Group C received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine,1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU) and1 ml saline (total 8 ml). Study outcomes included evaluation and scoring (onset and duration) of eyelid and globe akinesia, total 15-min akinesia score and duration of block. Intraoperative hemodynamic measures were measured every 15 minutes during the whole procedure and every 30 minutes during the first two postoperative (PO) hours.. PO analgesia was hourly-assessed using Visual Analogue Score (VAS) and analgesia was provided at VAS of \>5. Anesthetic procedure After securing intravenous access, non-invasive monitoring for blood pressure (SBP, DBP, MAP), E.C.G, and pulse oximetry (SpO2) were applied. tetracaine eye drops 0.5% applied to all patients as topical anesthesia. All patients were sedated using midazolam (0.05 mg/kg) as a preanesthetic medication I.V prior to receive LAM injection with nasal oxygen mask. Two ml of lidocaine 2% were diluted with 8 ml saline 3ml of LAM assigned for each group was injected in the medial canthus (the tunnel between the caruncle and the medial canthal angle) using needle 3-cm length and 27G inserted at angle of 45° between the caruncle and medial canthal angle till the tip of the needle touch the ethmoid bone then the direction of the needle was changed to 90° with the hub of the needle at level of the iris. Another 5 ml of LAM was injected at the extreme inferotemporal border of the orbit with the same needle directed downward and medially below the globe. Light orbital compression applied for 1 minute; then eye was evaluated 1, 3, 5 and 10 minutes for appearance of proptosis and chemosis. All patients receive intraoperative non-invasive monitoring for blood pressure measures (SBP, DBP, MAP),E.C.G, and pulse oximetry (SpO2) prior to local anesthetic injection.
Interventions
DRUGNalbuphine Group
All patients received 8 ml of LAM which consisted of: 6 ml of ml of bupivacaine 0.5%, 1 ml of hyaluronidase containing 150 IU, 1 ml of additive Patients were categorized into three groups according to the type of additive used with the LAM as follows: Group N:(Nalbuphine group)1 ml saline containing 4mg nalbuphine used instead of normal saline
DRUGFentanyl Group
All patients received 8 ml of LAM which consisted of: 6 ml of ml of bupivacaine 0.5%, 1 ml of hyaluronidase containing 150 IU, 1 ml of additive Patients were categorized into three groups according to the type of additive used with the LAM as follows: Group F: :(Fentanyl group)1 ml saline containing 20 μg fentanyl used instead of normal saline
DRUGControl Group
All patients received 8 ml of LAM which consisted of: 6 ml of ml of bupivacaine 0.5%, 1 ml of hyaluronidase containing 150 IU, 1 ml of additive Patients were categorized into three groups according to the type of additive used with the LAM as follows: Group C (Control group): included patients assigned to receive 1 ml normal saline.

Masking description
Patients were grouped randomly using sealed envelopes prepared by an assistant who was blinded to the grouping and envelops were chosen by patient him/her self or by the nearest relative All patients received 8 ml of LAM which consisted of: 3 ml of mepivacaine 3%, 1 ml of hyaluronidase containing 150 IU, 2 ml of bupivacaine 0.5%, 1 ml of lidocaine 2%.Patients were categorized into three groups according to the type of additive used with the LAM as follows: 1. Group C (Control group): included patients assigned to receive 1 ml normal saline. 2. Group F: 1 ml saline containing 20 μg fentanyl was used instead of normal saline. 3. Group N:1 ml saline containing 4mg nalbuphine was used instead of normal saline.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Onset of eyelid and globe akinesia | 24 hours Postoperative | The onset of eyelid and globe akinesia was assessed till complete recovery |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Blood pressure | 24 hours Postoperative | Blood pressure (mmHg) .Hypotension is defined as a 20% decrease in MAP in relation to baseline measures |
| Heart rate | 24 hours Postoperative | Heart rate (beat/minute).Bradycardia were defined as a 20% decrease in HR in relation to baseline measures |
