Objective:
To determine the effect of analgesia postoperatively when bupivacaine is used alone and in combination
with tramadol as caudal block anesthesia in pediatric infra-umbilical surgeries
Subject and Methods:
A study conducted in Pediatric Surgery Department of Civil Hospital Karachi, Dow University of Health
Sciences. This is a Randomized trial which includes a total of 60 children undergoing infra-umbilical
surgeries. Patients got randomly allocated into 2 groups, 30 in (Bupivacaine-Tramadol) group A, which
were given 0.5ml/kg 0.25% bupivacaine & 1mg/kg tramadol while 30 patients in group Bwho received
0.5ml/kg 0.25% bupivacaine as caudal block anesthesia respectively. Hemodynamic status was monitored.
The end point of the study was onset of pain in patient if Baker-Wong FACES Pain Rating Scale Score
>4. The time frame of our study was six months from 1st July – 31st December 2015.
Results:
The mean age was 4.66±1.79 years. Mean duration of postoperative analgesia was significantly prolonged
in group A as compared to group B (p =0.0005).
Conclusion:
Tramadol when added with bupivacaine in caudal analgesic block has an additive and long-lasting effect
and there was a decreased need to provide rescue analgesia after surgery
