Clinical Trial: Effect of Warm Bupivacaine on Subtenon Block.
Study Status: COMPLETED
Recruit Status: COMPLETED
Condition: Cataract
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: The Influence Of Bupivacaine Temperature On Subtenon Block Characteristics: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial
Brief Summary:
Sub-Tenon's anesthesia is now widely regarded as a preferred local anesthetic method for cataract surgery.Various techniques have been explored to prolong the duration, shorten onset time and improve the efficacy of local anesthetic nerve blocks with varying degrees of success.Warming local anesthetic may speed up its onset and prolong its effect by lowering its pKa.The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of warming bupivacaine on the characteristics of a sub-Tenon's block in patients undergoing…
