Analgesic efficacy of caudal dexamethasone combined with ropivacaine in children undergoing orchiopexy.
BACKGROUND Epidural administration of dexamethasone might reduce postoperative pain in adults. We evaluated whether a caudal block of 0.1 mg kg(-1) dexamethasone combined with ropivacaine improves analgesic efficacy in children undergoing day-case orchiopexy. METHODS This randomized, double-blind study included 80 children aged 6 months to 5 yr who underwent day-case, unilateral orchiopexy. P...

The current study examined whether supplementation of caudal bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine could achieve better results. METHODS Sixty children aged 12-72 months undergoing unilateral inguinal hernia repair received standardized premedic...
متن کاملEffect of Dexmedetomidine on Sevoflurane Requirements and Emergence Agitation in Children Undergoing Ambulatory Surgery

متن کاملCaudal Bbck in Children Ropivacaine Compared with Bupivaca ine
Background: Bupivacaine provides reliable, long-lasting anesthesia and analgesia when given via the caudal route. Ropivacaine is a newer, long-acting local anesthetic that (at a concentration providing similar pain relief) has less motor nerve blockade and may have less cardiotoxicity than bupivacaine. Methods: In a double-blind trial, 81 healthy children, undergoing ambulatory surgical procedu...
