Dexmedetomidine an Adjuvant to Levobupivacaine in Supraclavicular Brachial Plexus Block: A Randomized Double Blind Prospective Study
BACKGROUND Apha-2 agonists are combined with local anesthetics to extend the duration of regional anesthesia. We evaluated the effect of combining dexmedetomidine with levobupivacine with respect to duration of motor and sensory block and duration of analgesia. METHODS Sixty patients scheduled for elective forearm and hand surgery were divided into two equal groups in a randomized double blin...
متن کاملDexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to levobupivacaine in ultrasound guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block
Background: Alpha-2 agonists are added to local anesthetic agents to extend the duration of peripheral nerve blocks. Objective: We evaluated the effect of combining dexmedetomidine with levobupivacine with respect to duration of motor and sensory block and duration of analgesia. Material and Methods: Sixty patients of ASA grade I or II aged between 18-60 years, posted for elective upper limb su...
متن کاملComparison of clinical effects of prilocaine, dexamethasone added to prilocaine and levobupivacaine on brachial plexus block.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether the addition of 8 mg dexamethasone to axillary brachial plexus block would prolong the duration of sensory and motor block in patients undergoing hand and forearm surgery. METHODS The prospective, randomised, double-blinded study was conducted at the Eskisehir Osmangazi University Medical School, Turkey, from October 2008 to December 2009. It comprised 45 Americ...
متن کاملSupraclavicular brachial plexus block: a comparative clinical study between bupivacaine and levobupivacaine.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Brachial plexus block is used in surgical procedures of the upper limbs. The brachial plexus is a potential territory for absorption of local anesthetics. Studies on bupivacaine isomers have shown reduced cardiovascular toxicity of its levorotatory form (levobupivacaine). However, the anesthetic efficacy (sensorial and motor blockades) of levobupivacaine in neuroaxis b...
متن کاملDexamathasone added to levobupivacaine improves postoperative analgesia in ultrasound guided interscalene brachial plexus blockade for arthroscopic shoulder surgery
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the addition of 5 mg dexamethasone to 10 ml of 0.5% levobupivacaine on postoperative analgesic effects of ultrasound guided-interscalene brachial plexus block (ISBPB) in arthroscopic shoulder surgery under general anesthesia. METHODS In 60 patients scheduled for arthroscopic shoulder surgery that underwent general anesthesia, ...
