Abstract

Introduction: From its humble beginnings, ultrasound guided regional anaesthesia has evolved over the years, with the development of newer blocks and alternative approaches to existing peripheral nerve blocks. Therefore it finds application in not only the anaesthesia set-up but also in critical care and trauma triages, as a modality to provide anaesthesia and analgesia to patients. It is currently the standard of care for administering regional anaesthesia.

Methodology: The patients were selected by convenience sampling and those who matched the selection criterion, were briefed about the nature of the study and the procedures involved, in a language understood by them and written informed consent was taken. Descriptive data of the patient such as name, age, sex and detailed medical history, was collected.

Results: In our study it was observed that some patients in both Groups S and T experienced mild sedation (Ramsay Sedation Score 3) when assessed for the same at the 2 hour and 4 hour interval. The number of patients experiencing mild sedation at these intervals, were more in Group T as compared to Group S.

Conclusion: But this difference in Sedation scores between the two groups was not found to be statistically significant (p value> 0.05). At the subsequent intervals of 6, 12 and 24 hours, there was no difference in the incidence of sedation between the two groups.
