Regional Anesthesia for Totally Awake Upper Limb Surgery in PEDiatric Population
Sponsor: GCS Ramsay Santé pour l'Enseignement et la Recherche
Summary
Peripheral loco-regional anesthesia (LRA) for anesthetic purposes is a technique widely used in adults for upper limb surgery. In pediatrics, LRA is not classically considered on its own. It is usually performed for analgesic purposes during sedation or general anesthesia. It is entirely possible to carry out awakened peripheral blocks in communicating children, of school age, thus avoiding the issues of GA in pediatrics, in particular in an emergency context. The use of Emla anesthetic skin patches for punctures (perfusion and LRA) as well as the viewing of cartoons on touch tablets during treatment can improve the perception of painless care such as LRA and treatment. In pediatrics, only ropivacaine at a concentration of 0.2% has Marketing Authorization in pediatrics in children under 12 for the production of peripheral blocks. On the basis of the experience of the Claude Galien Private Hospital in this area, it seems interesting to assess the feasibility of upper limb surgery under anesthetic LRA alone with a dose of ropivacaine at the concentration 0.35% in communicating children, of school age.
