No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The ilio-inguinal ilio-hypogastric (IIIH) nerve block remains the gold standard analgesic technique after inguinal surgery in children. Transverse abdominal plane (TAP) block has been reported to provide effective analgesia after lower abdominal surgery in adults. The aim of our study was to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided TAP block to IIIH nerve block after inguinal surgery in children.

Conditions

  • Analgesia
  • Ultrasound Guided Block

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ultrasoud-guided TAP block

the ultrasound probe was placed at the mid-axillary line, and the needle was inserted into the space between the internal oblique and transverse muscles, splitting the inter-muscular fascia after injection of local anesthetic.

PROCEDURE

Ultrasound-guided Ilio-inguinal Ilio-Hypogatric block

the ultrasound probe was positioned transversely on the abdominal wall at the contact point of the anterosuperior iliac spine. The needle was inserted into the space between the internal oblique and transverse muscles, causing separation of the intermuscular fascia layers upon injection of the anesthetic mixture
