研究概览
简要总结
This study is a randomised comparative study to compare the postoperative analgesia between caudal bupivacaine alone and caudal bupivacaIne-dexamethasone in pediatric patients undergoing elective infraumbilical surgery under general anaesthesia, with the hypothesis that the bupivacaine-dexamethasone combination provides better postoperative analgesia than bupivacaine alone in caudal block. Primarily postoperative pain scores (FLACC score) will be recorded at 0hr, 1hr, 2hrs, 4hrs, 8hrs, 12hrs and 24 hrs. Secondarily intraoperative hemodynamic parameters and total analgesic requirement in 24 hrs will be recorded.
