Summary

The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of adding a pre-emptive combined bilateral infraorbital and infratrochlear nerve blocks with bupivacaine 0.25% in decreasing intraoperative and postoperative analgesics consumption and maintaining intraoperative hemodynamic stability during nasal surgeries.

Conditions

  • Anesthesia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

combined bilateral infraorbital and infratrochlear nerve blocks

Filling the block labelled syringe with 8 mL of bupivacaine 0.25%. Starting with Infraorbital nerve block using an extraoral approach.Inserting a 25-gauge needle laterally to the ipsilateral nostril after palpating the infraorbital ridge to locate the infraorbital foramen. Positioning of the index finger of the non-dominant hand above the infraorbital foramen and advancing the needle feeling it beneath the finger to avoid globe penetration injury. Injecting 3 mL of the study solution slowly after confirming negative aspiration of blood and taking care not to inject into the foramen itself. Shifting to infratrochlear nerve block by inserting the needle 1 cm above the inner canthus targeting the junction of the orbit and the nasal bone. Injecting 1mL of the study solution after confirming negative aspiration of blood. Performing contralateral nerve block in the same manner. Applying pressure to four injection points for one minute to prevent hematoma.
