Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Nalbuphine has been used as an adjuvant to bupivacaine in intrathecal, epidural, caudal anesthesia and peripheral nerve blocks showing an increase in the efficacy and the duration of postoperative analgesia.The aim of this study is evaluation of the effect of nalbuphine when used as an adjuvant to a local anesthetic mixture in peribulbar block undergoing cataract surgery

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

44 patients (22 in each group) scheduled for elective cataract surgery using peribulbar block. Patients of Group N received local anesthetics received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU), and 4mg of Nalbuphine in 1 ml of saline (total 8 ml) and patients of Group C received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine, 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU) and1 ml saline (total 8 ml).

Addition of nalbuphine to bupivacaine in peribulbar block is associated with reduced the time of onset of globe akinesia, increased the duration of globe akinesia and analgesia with better postoperative pain relief

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Forty-four patients were enrolled in the current study and randomly allocated into two equal groups \[Group N (n=22) and Group C (n=22)\]. Two patients in Group N and three patients in Group C were excluded from the study due to failure of the block to achieve satisfactory surgical condition (inadequate akinesia OMS\>2) so, received additional supplementations 2-3 ml of LA mixture and were excluded from the study
Primary Study Purpose

SUPPORTIVE_CARE

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Participants Caregivers
The enrolled patients were randomized according to computer-generated random number into two equal groups of twenty two patients each and concealed using sequentially numbered sealed opaque envelopes.

Patients of Group N received local anesthetics received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU) , and 4mg of Nalbuphine in 1 ml of saline (total 8 ml) and patients of Group C received 6 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine, 1 ml hyaluronidase (75 IU) and1 ml saline (total 8 ml)

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group N

group N was received a mixture of 3 ml of 2% lidocaine, 4 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with hyaluronidase (75IU) and 4mg of nalbuphine in 1 ml normal saline.

Nalbuphine (20mg amp.) was prepared in 0.9% sodium chloride in 5mL syringe. If the block was inadequate after 10 minutes, a 2-4 ml supplementation of local anesthetics was given by the same technique and the patient was excluded from the study

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nalbuphine

Intervention Type DRUG

Both groups received 8 ml solution for the peribulbar block, Patients of group N was received a mixture of 3 ml of 2% lidocaine, 4 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with hyaluronidase (75IU)(16) and 4mg of nalbuphine in 1 ml normal saline. Patients of group C was received a mixture of 3 ml of 2% lidocaine, 4 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with hyaluronidase (75 IU) and 1 ml normal saline. Nalbuphine (20mg amp.) was prepared in 0.9% sodium chloride in 5mL syringe.

If the block was inadequate after 10 minutes, a 2-4 ml supplementation of local anesthetics was given by the same technique and the patient was excluded from the study.

After adequate analgesia (loss of sensation to touch by a small cotton wool) and akinesia, the surgeon was allowed to start the surgery
