Comparing Analgesic Effects of Three Ultrasound Guided Regional Anesthetic Techniques in Pediatrics

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2021-02-25
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This study evaluates analgesic effects of ultrasound-guided (USG) regional anesthetic techniques; caudal block , transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block and quadratus lumborum block (QLB) by comparing postoperative pain scores [ Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolabilty(FLACC) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)], first analgesic requirement time and total analgesic consumption in pediatrics undergoing lower abdominal surgery. We also aim to observe the side effects of these techniques such as nausea, vomiting, bradycardia, hypotension, respiratory depression.
