Opioid-free anesthesia under single injection paravertebral block combined with sevoflurane for pediatric renal surgery: a prospective observational pilot study.

Even though several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of opioid free anesthesia (OFA) strategies in pediatric patients, OFA has not been studied in pediatric renal surgery. We, therefore, conducted a prospective observational pilot study on a total of 26 children to assess the feasibility and efficacy of using a single injection ultrasound-guided paravertebral block (PVB) at T10 level with 0.4 mL/kg bupivacaine 0.

High-voltage electrical burn injuries are rare emergencies in pediatric units and always associated with a poor prognosis. Recklessness, lack of knowledge about electric currents and the lack of safety around public electricity infrastructures are the three main factors contributing to the occurrence of high-voltage electrical accidents in children. Mortality is due to acute cardiac and renal complications, and trauma associated with falls.

Erector spinae plane block for pediatric hip surgery -a case report.

Surgical repair of the hip is considered an extremely painful procedure. Managing pain in this surgery is challenging even with several available options, each with limitations. Erector spinae plane (ESP) block is a novel technique that has been used in different types of surgery, with promising results.
