Regional Anesthesia

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

MeasureTime frameDescription
Assessment of postoperative analgesia24 hourseach 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

MeasureTime frameDescription
Compare effects of both groups on mean arterial blood pressureintraoperative and 24 hoursmonitoring of blood pressure using non invasive blood pressure measurement in millimeter mercury

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
compare their effects on heart rate (beat\minute)intraoperative and 24 hoursmonitoring of heart rate using pulse oximetry in beat\\minute
Complication rate for procedures in the form of local anesthetic toxicityIntraoperative monitoringobservation of occurrence of local anesthetic toxicity as hypotension, seizures, bradycardia
