No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Peribulbar anaesthesia for ocular surgery depends on the spread of local anaesthetic throught the orbit to be successful and has a relatively high failure rate. This study will examine a novel ultrasound guided approach to peribulbar anaesthesia which should extend the depostion of local anaesthetic by using a dual quadrant injection technique. The study will assess the feasibility of this technique, how successful it is and whether any obvious safety issues arise with its use.
