Comparing Pain Relief Strategies for Open Inguinal Hernioplasty Ultrasound-Guided Ilioinguinal Nerve Block vs. Lignocaine 5 percent Patch

Phase 4

Not yet recruiting

Conditions: Medical and Surgical,

Registration Number: CTRI/2025/04/083868

Lead Sponsor: King George Medical University Department of Anesthesiology

Brief Summary: Inguinal hernioplasty is one of the common elective surgeries performed. It is associated with mild to moderate pain. Ilioinguinal block minimizes pain after tissue injury, avoid spinal sensitization, and diminish the prevalence of chronic pain. The use of ultrasound technique in nerve block will allow real-time visualization of the nerves and drug distribution, so less drug will be needed and less side effects.

The lidocaine (5%) patch offers a double mode of action in the treatment of localized neuropathic pain, delivering a mechanical barrier effect as well as pharmaceutical action through voltage-gated sodium-channel block by lidocaine activity,

By conducting this study we want to compare analgesic effect of ilioinguinal nerve block and lignocaine 5% patch in patient undergoing inguinal hernioplasty.
