Summary

This study will be conducted to evaluate efficacy of ultrasound guided sacral erector spinae plane block for postoperative analgesia in pediatric anorectal surgery in comparison to caudal block.

Conditions

  • Analgesia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Sacral ESP block

A high-frequency ultrasound linear probe covered with a sterile sheath will be placed longitudinally to the midline of the sacrum. The median sacral crests and erector spinae muscle will be visualized, then a 22-gauge, 50 mm needle will be advanced from cranial to caudal direction until its tip touch the sacral crest.

PROCEDURE

Caudal block

A high-frequency ultrasound linear probe covered with a sterile sheath will be placed on to the sacrococcygeal region. The dura mater, epidural space, conus medullaris, sacral cornua, and sacrococcygeal ligament will be identified. Using the in-plane technique, a 22-gauge, 50 mm needle will be introduced to reach the sacral epidural space.

DRUG

Bupivacaine Hydrochloride

Following negative aspiration, a precalculated dose (0.5 ml/kg) of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected.
