Subdural Hematoma
Conditions
Brief summary
this study amis to compare between Scalp block versus general anesthesia in patients undergoing evacuation of subdural hematoma via burr hole.
Interventions
Induction of general anesthesia will be done by IV propofol 2-2.5 mg / kg and IV fentanyl lug/kg. After IV Cis-atracurium 0.15mg/kg, endotracheal intubation will be done.
The scalp block will target six pairs of sensory nerves that innervate the scalp: the supraorbital nerve, supratrochlear nerve, auriculotemporal nerve, zygomaticotemporal nerve, greater occipital nerve, and lesser occipital nerve. Local anesthetic (2% lidocaine and bupivacaine) will be infiltrated at specific anatomical landmarks corresponding to the course of each nerve.
