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 ...

A Clinical Comparison between Plain Ropivacaine V/S Ropivacaine and Clonidine by Caudal Route for Post Operative Analgesia in Children [PDF]

, 2021
Background and objectives: Addition of clonidine to ropivacaine (0.25%) 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 ...

A prospective, randomized, triple-blind comparative study of ropivacaine-dexmedetomidine versus ropivacaine alone in peribulbar blocks

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2023
Background and Aims: Bupivacaine and lidocaine mixtures are the commonly used local anesthetic drugs for the peribulbar blocks. Because of its safe anesthetic profile, ropivacaine is being investigated as an alternative agent.

Perioperative analgesia and postoperative motor function after saphenous and sciatic nerve blocks in goats undergoing bilateral stifle surgery: A pilot study

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The combination of femoral and sciatic nerve blocks offers adequate perioperative analgesia for goats undergoing stifle surgery. However, postoperatively, residual motor dysfunction may lead to distress and discomfort. This study evaluated whether combined saphenous and sciatic nerve blocks provide adequate perioperative analgesia ...
