Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Only Intravenous fentanyl   After induction of general anaesthesia patients in group II patients will recieve only intravenous fentanyl with increase in heart rate from 20% above baseline apart from the induction dose at a dose of 0.5mcg/kg 
Intervention  Ultrasound Guided External Oblique Intercostal Plane block with intravenous fentanyl  After induction of general anaesthesia patients in group I will receive ultrasound guided External Oblique Intercostal Plane block. With patient in supine position high frequency linear transducer will be placed in the sagittal plane between midclavicular and anterior axillary line at the level of 6th rib. After optimization of image, needle will be inserted from superomedial to inferolateral direction through the external oblique muscle. 0.5ml/kg of 0.2% Ropivacaine will be deposited between the external oblique and intercostal muscle at the caudal end of the 6th rib.Any increase in heart rate from 20% above baseline would be treated with additional intravenous fentanly apart fromt the induction dose at the dose of 0.5mcg/kg

Brief Summary   This is a randomized clinical trial to study the analgesic efficacy of ultrasound guided External Oblique Intercostal Plane Block in pediatric patients undergoing upper abdominal surgeries.Ultrasound guided external oblique intercostal plane block will be given in supine position to all the patients belonging to group I alongwith intravenous opioids and group II will recieve only intravenous opioids. Intraoperative any increase in HR/MAP more than 20% intraoperatively will be treated with additional fentanyl doses of 1 mcg/kg and total intraoperative fentanyl consumption will be noted and compared in the two groups. Both groups will be compared with respect to Postoperative pain score using FLACC score at 1, 4, 8, 16, 24 hours at rest, time to first rescue analgesic administration , total Tramadol consumption 24 hours postoperatively, side effect likes nausea, vomiting and sedation and local anaesthetic toxicity
