Effects of Suppository Acetaminophen, Bupivacaine Wound Infiltration, and Caudal Block With Bupivacaine on Postoperative Pain in Pediatric Inguinal Herniorrhaphy

Abstract: Background:The control of postoperative pain is important in children, and poor pain control leads to organ dysfunction and behavioral problems.Objectives:We compared the analgesic effects of suppository acetaminophen, bupivacaine wound infiltration, and caudal block with bupivacaine on postoperative pain in pediatric inguinal herniorrhaphy.Patients and Methods:In this double-blinded, randomized controlled clinical trial, 90 children of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade I-II, aged between 3 mon… Show more

“…Both interventions were performed after surgery in two studies [13, 14, 17]; however the other 4 studies performed caudal preoperatively and infiltration postoperatively [1416, 18]. Except for Lafferty and colleagues (only orchidopexy) [14], all included hernia surgeries only.…”

“…Also another study by Hosseini Jahromi et al (25) evaluated the effects of suppository Acetaminophen, Bupivacaine Wound Infiltration, and Caudal Block with Bupivacaine on postoperative pain in management of inguinal herniorrhaphy in children, and it was seen that bupivacaine infiltration and caudal block with bupivacaine provide better analgesia than suppository acetaminophen. However in our study also the combination treatment resulted in a better analgesic response.…”

Therefore, most people would prefer new drugs that have fewer side effects and which are cheaper and easily available ( 7 ).…”
