Assessing the Atraumatic Technique in Ophthalmic Patients

NCT05572762 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 60

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is conducted to determine the efficacy of the cannula atraumatic technique as an alternative to the traditional needle penetrating technique to minimize the incidence of accidental globe penetration and/ or perforation, as the plastic part of the cannula is blunt and is difficult to perforate the normal globe being marble-like in consistency.

Conditions

  • Intravenous Cannula Regional Ophthalmic Anesthesia

Interventions

DEVICE

Cannula plastic part while applying peribulbar block

Using the cannula and introducing it peribulbar to apply regional ophthalmic anesthesia avoiding by this causing trauma to the globe, as the normal globe consistency is marble-like, the cannula can't puncture except in case of presence of staphyloma, so the cannula will either curve around it or will be kinked causing failure of the technique.

PROCEDURE

traditional technique

the patients are going to receive the local anesthetic standard of care technique by using 23- or 24-gauge needle introduced through the skin extra-conal and local anesthetic solution will be injected with volume AND concentration according to the surgery going to be done
