A Study Comparing the Efficacy of Postoperative Analgesia with Fascia-Iliaca Compartmental Block vs IV Tramadol In Surgeries Around Hip
Abstract: Background: Various drugs like Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, opioids like midazolam, ketamine, tramadol, fentanyl have been in use to reduce the pain postoperatively. Nerve blocks have come up as an effective and a safe alternative to provide pain relief. This study was designed to compare the efficacy of post operative analgesia with fascia-iliaca compartmental block vs intravenous Tramadol. Methods: A total of 60 patients satisfying the inclusion criteria were included in the study and randomly allocated to two groups of 30 each,Group F : were administered Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block postoperatively. Group T : were administered intravenous Tramadolpostoperatively .Hemodynamic variables like heart rate, non invasive blood pressure, saturation of oxygen, respiratory rate, nausea and vomiting were recorded after the block/ iv Tramadol at regular intervals .The analgesia provided by either of the modes(fascia iliacacompartmental block vs iv tramadol) was assessed by using Visual analogue scale scores at regular intervals . Results: The difference observed was statistically significant( p-
