No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Surgical procedure including hip joint surgery is extremely painful and associated with considerable postoperative pain in children despite the use of systemic opioids.

Caudal block is a common method used for perioperative pain relief in pediatric lower limb surgeries but carries some complications.

Some novel techniques of regional anesthesia were explored including the quadratus lumborum block (QLB), lumbar plexus block, and recently Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block.

The objective of the current trial is primarily to assess the analgesic efficacy of ultrasound-guided trans-muscular QLB versus ultrasound-guided PENG block in pediatric patients undergoing open hip surgery for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH)

Conditions

  • Pain, Postoperative
  • Developmental Dislocation of Hip

Interventions

PROCEDURE

TQL block

Ultrasonography-guided quadratus lumborum block (QLB) where we will infiltrate local anesthetic solution adjacent to the anterolateral aspect of the quadratus lumborum muscle

PROCEDURE

PENG block

Ultrasound-guided local anesthetic infiltration will be injected in the musculofascial plane between the psoas tendon anteriorly and the pubic ramus posteriorly
