NCT03713762

Brief Summary

Ophthalmological procedures such as cataract extraction can be carried out with a peribulbar block (PBB). The advantages of this anesthetic technique include a lower incidence of coughing, unwanted movements and emesis during awakening, in addition to providing adequate postoperative analgesia. The researchers want to investigate whether the use of fentanyl citrate by peribulbar route, when administered with a local anesthetic, shortens the anesthetic latency, interfere with the degree of akinesia and if provides greater postoperative analgesia.

Study Arms (2)

Group 1 LB

EXPERIMENTAL

Peribulbar block 1 was performed received 100 mg of lidocaine 5% and 15 mg of bupivacaine 0.5% for a total volume of the anesthetic mixture of 5 ml

Drug: peribulbar block 1 lidocaine/bupivacaine

Group 2 LBF

EXPERIMENTAL

Peribulbar block 2 was performed received 100 mg of lidocaine 5%, 15 mg of 0.5% bupivacaine and 50 mcg of fentanyl citrate for a total volume of the anesthetic mixture of 6 ml.

Drug: peribulbar block 2 lidocaine/bupivacaine/fentanyl

Eligibility Criteria

Age45 Years - 90 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All patients scheduled for cataract surgery (Cataract Extracapsular Extraction)
  • With indication of regional anesthesia with peribulbar block
  • Physical status ASA I or II
  • Patients between 45 and 90 years of age

You may not qualify if:

  • Allergic to amide-type anesthetics and fentanyl citrate
  • Patients with a history of woody thorax
  • Patients with uncompensated systemic diseases
  • Patients in whom it was necessary to change the anesthetic technique due to insufficient analgesia or those in which the administration of intravenous analgesics was required during the operative period.
