Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining and comparing the quality of analgesia in two methods of bilateral ilioinvaginal block and caudal with rupivacaine 0.2% in patients aged 3 to 8 years undergoing bilateral inguinal hernia surgery under general anesthesia
Design
Clinical trial, with parallel groups, double-blind, On 66 patients (33 patients in each group). Random number table will be used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
The blocks will be performed in the general operating room in Childrens' medical Center Hospital. In the first group, after induction, the patient underwent ultrasound inguinal block with rupivacaine 0.2% (0.1 ml /kg) and in the second group, patients will be subjected to caudal block (1 ml/kg) with rupivacaine 0.2%. A person who records the severity of pain and the patient herself is not aware of the type of block.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria is children 3 to 8 years old candidate for bilateral inguinal hernia repair without a history of disease, ASA class 1 & 2. Exclusion criteria is allergy to local anesthetics, non-Persian speaking patients, sacral infection, coagulation disorders, history of seizures, weight more than 20 kg and patients who are being treated with a variety of painkillers and psychiatric medications for any reason.
Intervention groups
The first group underwent bilateral ilioinguinal block under ultrasound guide/ The second group under caudal block
Main outcome variables
After induction of anesthesia, heart rate and mean arterial pressure are measured and recorded. In PACU , the patient's pain intensity is assessed using the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale criterion (CHEOPS) and the patient's restlessness and delirium are assessed using The Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) criterion. Also, the length of stay in recovery and other vital signs in recovery will be recorded.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The sample will be identified by the randomization (restricted randomization) block method with 6 blocks and using a random number table of Random Allocation Software. The randomization tool is the random sequence generation software version 2.0, it will be available from the following address:(http://random.allocation software, version 2.0). Allocation concealment will be used to execute random sequences on participants. Each random sequence generated will be recorded on a card and the cards will be sealed in opaque envelopes. In order to maintain a random sequence, the envelopes are numbered in the same way on the outer surface, and finally the letter envelopes are glued and placed in a box respectively. Registration of participants, based on the order of entry of eligible participants into study, one of the envelopes of the letter is opened in order and the assigned group of the participant is revealed.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
A person who records the severity of pain and the patient does not know the type of block. The double blindness of the study will be done this way.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group 1: Patient under bilateral ilioinguinal block with rupivacaine 0.2%( manufactured by MOLTENI farmaceutici) under ultrasound guide. After determining the sedation score according to Ramsay criteria, patients are directed to the operating room. After installing standard monitoring equipment and obtaining a peripheral vein, 2 mg/kg sodium thiopental and 1 μg/kg fentanyl m is prescribed. Induction of anesthesia will be done by mapleson and under spontaneous inhalation. sevoflurane 8% and 100% oxgygen will be used in induction. After endotracheal tube insertion, maintenance of anesthesia will be provided by 100% oxygen and isoflurane 2.5%. After induction of anesthesia, heart rate and mean arterial pressure will be measured and recorded.In performing ilio-inguinal block, the child is in the supine position and after prep and drape a short 24G needle will be used. Rupivacaine 0.2% at a dose of 0.1 ml / kg will be used for drug injection. In case of increased heart rate or systolic blood pressure after incision by more than 20% of basal values, fentanyl will be repeated and recorded at a dose of 1 μg /kg. After surgery, the patient's pain intensity will be assessed using the CHEOPS criteria and the delirium score will be assessed by PAED score. In post anesthesia care unit, patients with CHEOPS pain score greater than 10 will be prescribed 1 of fentanyl μg /kg.Rupivacaine is from the Bioindustria L.i.m.s.p.a brand.
