Actual (reported)Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) was introduced in 1990 for the first time as a minimally invasive procedure instead of the conventional open surgical repair, with the aim to decrease morbidity and mortality . Nowadays EVAR has become an acceptable management for patients with infra-renal aortic aneurysms (AAA) . A lot of anesthetic techniques have been used successfully for EVAR. EVAR requires sedative analgesic medications to achieve an acceptable level of comfort to the patient and cardiorespiratory stability. This is prospective randomized single blinded study of patients presenting with aorto-iliac aneurysm who will undergo EVAR. Patient's demographic data will be assessed, as well as clinical presentation, intraoperative complications. 30 patients undergoing elective EVAR will be included and will be divided equally into 2 groups. First group is the psoas compartment block (PCB) (15 patients): 30 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% will be infused over 3 minutes at the anatomical landmark. Second group is the LA and remifentanil group (LR) (15 patients): lidocaine 5 ml of 2% will be injected subcutaneous as local infiltration then remifentanil infusion with rate 0.03-0.1 μg kg-1 min-1. to achieve visual analog scale (VAS) 3 or less. Vital date will be recorded as baseline then every 5 minutes till the end of the procedure. VAS will be recorded as baseline then every 5 minutes till the end of the procedure. Also stress response which will be measured subjectively as vital data and VAS and objectively as cortisol level in the blood which will be measured as base line and immediate after the end of the procedure.

Actual (reported)Changes in Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
The primary outcome was Visual Analog Scale (VAS) to assess perioperative analgesia and pain management. Pain was assessed using the 100-mm visual analog scale, ranging from 0 to 100. The lowest score is 0 (no pain/excellent analgesia) and the highest score is 100 (Max pain).
Assessment to be done at baseline (immediate before starting the procedure), then every 10 min through study till 4 hours after given the anesthesia.The event was determent via asking patient about pain experience every time using 100 mm VAS
Arterial blood pressure
will be recorded at baseline (immediate before starting the procedure), then every 5 min through study till 4 hours after given the anesthesia.
Satisfactions Score
Time frame include 2 time points, first time point: immediate at the end of the procedure and the second time point: 2 hours after the end of the procedure
heart rate (HR)
Will be recorded at baseline (immediate before starting the procedure), then every 5 min through study till 4 hours after given the anesthesia.
Oxygen saturation
Will be recorded at baseline (immediate before starting the procedure), then every 5 min through study till 4 hours after given the anesthesia.
30 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% will be infused over 3 minutes at the anatomical land mark for psoas plexus, also normal saline 0.9% IV infusion will be in the same rate of the Remifentanil infusion for the other group.
L.A infiltration (lidocaine) 5 ml of 2% will be injected subcutaneous as L.A infiltration then Remifentanil infusion with rate 0.03-0.1 μg / kg / min to achieve Visual Analog Scale 3 or less.
30 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% will be infused over 3 minutes at the anatomical landmark for Psoas Compartment Block (PCB)
Lidocaine 5 ml of 2% will be injected subcutaneous as local infiltration.
