Comparison of caudal analgesia between ropivacaine and ropivacaine with clonidine in children: A randomized controlled trial

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2012
Background: Addition of clonidine to ropivacaine (0.2%) can potentially enhance analgesia without producing prolonged motor blockade. The aim of the present study was to compare the post-operative pain relieving quality of ropivacaine 0.2% and clonidine ...

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Comparative Study of the Analgesic Efficacy of Perineural Dexmedetomidine as Adjuvant to Ropivacaine versus Ropivacaine Alone in Ultrasound Guided Saphenous Nerve Block after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Surgery

Archives of Anesthesia and Critical Care, 2021
Background: The saphenous nerve block has been effectively used for pain treatment after knee surgeries, however, a single-shot saphenous nerve block with a long-acting local anesthetic usually provides a relatively short duration of postoperative ...

Superior Labial Artery Flap for Septal Perforation Repair: The Boxer's Flap

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The nasal floor flap, or Boxer's flap, is an anteriorly pedicled, superior labial artery–based mucosal flap that provides excellent closure rates in septal perforation repair when traditional septal flaps are not feasible. The schematic shows: (A) preoperative perforation, (B) nasal floor flap elevation (with the pedicle maintained at the inferior ...

Altered Pharmacokinetics of Ropivacaine in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Major Hepatectomy

Pharmaceutics
Background/Objectives: Ropivacaine is primarily metabolized by the liver. High doses of ropivacaine, combined with altered pharmacokinetics due to hepatectomy, raise concerns about potential drug toxicity.

Perspectives in Pediatric Ambulatory Anesthesia: Part 3—One Center's Evolving Regional Anesthesia Experience and Outcomes

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric ambulatory surgery is the dominant model of surgical care in the U.S. and has impacted the practice of regional anesthesia (RA). Pediatric RA's use has expanded as a supplement to general anesthesia with the introduction of ultrasound.

A comparative study of efficacy of ropivacaine (0.75%) with adjuvants – dexmedetomidine and fentanyl in supraclavicular brachial plexus block

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Brachial plexus block is preferred to general anesthesia (GA) as it reduces many complications of GA, provides good intra and postoperative analgesia, adequate muscle relaxation.

Median Effective Volume of 0.2% Ropivacaine for Ultrasound‐Guided Axillary Brachial Plexus Block in Children Aged 6–10 Years: A Prospective Dose‐Finding Study Using Up‐and‐Down Sequential Allocation

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
Purpose: This study aimed to determine the median effective volume (EV50) of 0.2% ropivacaine for ultrasound‐guided axillary brachial plexus block (ABPB) in children aged 6–10 years, using the Dixon up‐and‐down method. The EV50 was 0.350 mL/kg (95% CI: 0.197–0.362 mL/kg), calculated by isotonic regression and bootstrapping.

Evaluation of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl as additives to ropivacaine for epidural anesthesia and postoperative analgesia

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2018
Background and Aims: The synergism between epidural local anesthetic agent and opioids is well established, but evidence for the combination of local anesthetic agent with dexmedetomidine in epidurals is limited.

Effect of single spinal anesthesia with two doses ropivacaine on urinary retention after hemorrhoidectomy in male patients

Frontiers in Surgery, 2023
BackgroundAnorectal diseases are common in the population and include internal, external, and mixed hemorrhoids. Although hemorrhoid surgery is a brief operation, anesthesia, anesthetic drugs, drug concentrations, and anesthesia level control are closely
