Details |
Comparator Agent |
Caudal levobupivacaine |
Patient will be positioned in lateral decubitus position. A dry gauze swab is placed in the anal cleft to protect the anus and genitalia from disinfectants
A triangle will be marked on skin over sacrum, using the posterior superior iliac spines as base, with apex pointing inferiorly(caudally).
Normally this apex sits over or immediately adjacent to the sacral hiatus. The hiatus will be marked and the tip of index finger will be placed on the tip of the coccyx in the anal cleft while the thumb of the same hand will palpate the two sacral cornua
The sacral cornua identified by gently moving he palpating index finger from side to side. The palpating thumb should sink into the hollow between the two cornea, as if between knuckles of a fist
Sterile skin preparation and draping of entire region will be performed to achevie asepsis . A 20G/22G hypodermic needle or caudal cannula will be inserted either in the mid line or para medially into caudal canal.
Feeling of a slight “snap†may be appreciated when advancing needle pierces sacroccygeal ligament.
Once the needle reaches the ventral wall of sacral canal, it is slowly withrawnand turned 90 degree to face cranially, directing it more cranially for further insertion into the canal. Loss of resistance technique will be use to stabilise entry in epidural space then caudal anaesthesia will be given using levobupuvacaine 0.25 % 1ml/k.g.
General anaesthesia will then be reversed using neostigmine (0.05 mg/k.g.) and (0.01 mg/kg) glycopyrolate and patient will be extubated . Patient will be shifted to post anaesthetic care unit till 2 hours after operation |

Caudal ropivacaine |

Sterile skin preparation and draping of entire region will be performed to achieve asepsis. A 20G/22G hypodermic needle or caudal cannula will be inserted either in the midline or paramedially into caudal canal.
Feeling of a slight “snap†may be appreciated when advancing needle pierces sacrococcygeal ligament.
Once the needle reaches the ventral wall of sacral canal, it is slowly withdrawn and turned 90 degree to face cranially, Directing it more cranially for further insertion into the canal. Loss of resistance technique will be use to stabilise entry in epidural space then caudal anaesthesia will be given using ropivacaine 0.25 % 1ml/k.g.

Brief Summary
|
caudal epidural anaesthesia is a widely used technique in pediatric infraumbilical surgery . use of postoperative analgesia via the caudal epidural route with bupivacaine in pediatric patient is established in infraumbilical surgery . levobupivacaine and ropivacaine provide wider margine of safety , same analgesic effect and less post operative motor block than racemic mixture of bupivacaine in epidural block and both are well tolerated . so we proposed to evaluate the quality and duration of post operative analgesia and any side effects while using caudal block with ropivacaine and levobupivacaine |
