Regional Anesthesia
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is comparing the effect of lumbar plexus block and fascia iliaca block with general anesthesia to provide perioperative pain control and compare their effects on hemodynamics
Detailed description
Different groups receive different interventions at same time during study. patients were randomly allocated in two groups : Group A: lumbar plexus block using shamrock technique by 0.3 ml/kg of 0.5% bupivacaine with 1:200000 adrenaline. Group B: Fascia iliaca block by 0.3 ml/kg of 0.5% bupivacaine with 1:200000 adrenaline.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Assessment of postoperative analgesia | 24 hours | each patient was assessed by visual analogue scale which consists of a 10 cm line with one end labelled no pain and the other end labelled worst pain imaginable. The patient marks the line at the point that best describes the pain intensity |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Compare effects of both groups on mean arterial blood pressure | intraoperative and 24 hours | monitoring of blood pressure using non invasive blood pressure measurement in millimeter mercury |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| compare their effects on heart rate (beat\minute) | intraoperative and 24 hours | monitoring of heart rate using pulse oximetry in beat\\minute |
| Complication rate for procedures in the form of local anesthetic toxicity | Intraoperative monitoring | observation of occurrence of local anesthetic toxicity as hypotension, seizures, bradycardia |
