About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Regional Block of the Nose in Achieving Hypotensive Anaesthesia in Septo-rhinoplasty Surgery

Septorhinoplasty is a cosmetic surgery that many people are choosing to undergo. It can be done under general anesthesia, twilight anesthesia or regional anesthesia. Controlled hypotensive anesthesia is required to minimize bruising, swelling, and bleeding that reduces visibility in the operative field and hence satisfactory surgical outcome.

The goal of our study to prove that regional block of the nose provides efficient hypotensive anesthesia

Being tested
General anesthesia with fentanyl boluses, Regional block

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • General anesthesia with fentanyl bolusesOther

    Patients will receive general anesthesia with Fentanyl boluses of 0.5 mcg.Kg-1 given to maintain MAP between 55-65 mmHg with a maximum dose of 3 mcg.Kg-1

  • Regional blockProcedure or surgery

    Patients will receive trans-oral bilateral sphenopalatine ganglion block and trans-oral bilateral infraorbital nerve block.

GS [General anesthesia]Active comparatorPatients will receive general anesthesia with Fentanyl boluses of 0.5 mcg.Kg-1 given to maintain MAP between 55-65 mmHg with a maximum dose of 3 mcg.Kg-1.
Receives: Other: General anesthesia with fentanyl boluses
GR [General anesthesia + regional block]Active comparatorPatients will receive general anesthesia with Fentanyl boluses of 0.5 mcg.Kg-1 given to maintain MAP between 55-65 mmHg with a maximum dose of 3 mcg.Kg-1. Also patients will receive trans-oral bilateral sphenopalatine ganglion block and trans-oral bilateral infraorbital nerve block. Fentanyl boluses of 0.5 mcg.Kg-1 will be given when needed to maintain MAP between 55-65 mmHg with a maximum dose of 3 mcg.Kg-1.
Receives: Other: General anesthesia with fentanyl boluses; Procedure: Regional block

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Hypotensive anesthesia

    Measurement of Mean arterial blood pressure

    Measured: Intraoperative

  2. Requirements of Fentanyl

    Assessment of intraoperative fentanyl doses of [Fentanyl boluses of 0.5 mcg.Kg-1 will be given to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) between 55-65 mmHg with a maximum dose of 3 mcg.Kg-1]

    Measured: Intraoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Average category scale (ACS)

    The surgeon will be asked, at the end of surgery, to assess bleeding in the surgical field using the average category scale 0-5 scale where [0=No bleeding and5=Severe bleeding]

    Measured: Intraoperative
