Summary

This present randomized trial is designed to evaluate the postoperative pain,inflammatory marker, postoperative analgesic medication, length of hospital stay and the modifications of inflammatory mediators in patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair using local, spinal or general anesthesia.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

local anesthesia group

Patients will receive local anesthesia similar to that described by Amid et al. except that 1% lidocaine with adrenaline (1:200,000) will be used instead of a mixture of lidocaine and bupivacaine.

PROCEDURE

spinal anesthesia group

Patients will be positioned in the lateral position and a Whitacre 25 G needle will be inserted at L3-4 intervertebral space and then heavy bupivacaine 0.5% 15 mg will be injected.

PROCEDURE

general anesthesia group

Patients will be induced with propofol 2 mg/kg and fentanyl 1.5 µg /kg. They are then allowed to breathe spontaneously with sevoflurane 2% to 2.5% in a mixture of 60% oxygen through a laryngeal mask. End-tidal concentration of sevoflurane will be adjusted to keep end-tidal sevoflurane 1MAC. Supplemental doses of 25 µg of fentanyl will be administered if intraoperative heart rate and blood pressure are greater than 20% of baseline.
