Intervention  Transversus Abdominis Plane Block for post operative analgesia in infra umbilical surgeries  The aim of our study is to compare the efficacy of ropivacaine with dexmedetomidine versus ropivacaine alone for transversus abdominis plane block for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing infraumbilical surgeries in terms of duration of analgesia postoperatively, quality of analgesia and side effects (if any). The patients will be randomly allocated into 2 groups of 30 each, Group RS: will receive 20 ml of 0.5% ropivacaine and 1 ml of normal saline. Group RD: will receive 20 ml of 0.5% ropivacaine and 0.5 mcg/kg (1ml) of dexmedetomidine.

SUMMARY

Assessment of the postoperative analgesic efficacy of Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to Ropivacaine in Transversus Abdominis Plane Block for infraumbilical surgeries

Candidate: Bhabesh Prasad Panda

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:

To compare and evaluate the analgesic effect of dexmedetomidine 0.5 mcg/kg as an adjuvant to 0.25% ropivacaine  vs 0.25% ropivacaine alone in transverses abdominis plane block in infraumbilical surgeries with regards to duration of analgesia and postoperative analgesic consumption in 24 hours.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

The present study will be conducted in a randomized manner in the department of Anesthesiology, GGS Medical College and Hospital, Faridkot.

Inclusion criteria: 1.) American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) grade I  and II. 2.) Patients aged between 18-65 years. 3.) Patients undergoing infraumbilical surgeries like hernia repair, mesh hernioplasty, appendicectomy under spinal anesthesia.

Exclusion criteria: 1.) Patients with any contraindication to regional anesthesia or allergy to the study drugs. 2.) ASA-III &ASA-IV patients. 3.) Pregnant or lactating patients. 4.)Patient refusal. 

A total of 60 patients will be randomly allocated into 2 study groups i.e RS and RD of 30 patients each using computer generated randomization. Patient will be anesthetized with spinal anesthesia by giving 3ml of 0.5% heavy bupivacaine. Group RS will receive 20 ml drug volume of 0.25% ropivacaine + 1 ml of NS and Group RD will receive 20 ml drug volume of 0.25% ropivacaine + 0.5 mcg/kg dexmedetomidine in US guided TAP block. Duration of postoperative analgesia and total analgesic consumption in first 24 hours postoperatively will be noted and compared. After completion of the study, observations obtained will be tabulated and analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. P value <0.05 will be taken as significant and <0.001 will be taken as highly significant.

This study will help to establish a better post operative pain management protocol in our institute in infra umbilical surgeries.
