متن کاملUltrasonography for ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve blocks in children.
BACKGROUND The ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve block is a popular regional anaesthetic technique for children undergoing inguinal surgery. The success rate is only 70-80% and complications may occur. A prospective randomized double-blinded study was designed to compare the use of ultrasonography with the conventional ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve block technique. METHODS One hundred c...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of 0.75% ropivacaine and 0.5% bupivacaine after ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric nerve block in children.
BACKGROUND Blockade of the ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerves is a useful procedure in paediatric patients undergoing inguinal surgery. Bupivacaine 2 mg kg-1 has been recommended for this block. We compared the plasma concentrations of ropivacaine and bupivacaine following an ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric block. METHODS Forty children scheduled for elective inguinal surgery were randomize...
متن کاملThe analgesic effects of ropivacaine in ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric nerve block in children--concentration or volume?

Despite the benefits of US guidance, the absence of an US machine should not deter the provider from performing INB, considering that many institutions, especially in developing c...
