Evaluation Of Analgesia Efficiency of Additional Local Anesthesia During The Circumcision Procedure

Abstract

Objective: Circumcision is the most common surgical procedure in the world and the pain during and after this procedure can affect the procedure comfort by leaving both the patient and his relatives and also the doctor in a difficult position. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous ring block local anesthesia on postoperative pain scores using VAS (visual pain score).

Material and Methods: Children over 5 years were divided into two groups for circumcision operation and subcutaneous ring block local anesthesia was applied to one group (Group 1). In the other group (Group 2) no local anesthesia was performed. All patients were compared using VAS (visual pain score). Results were statistically analyzed using Chi-square Test (p<0.05).


Conclusion: There were no significant difference of pain scores among the children who had subcutaneous ring block local anesthesia during the circumcision operation, the subcutaneous ring block was performed with local anesthesia; and the children who had not (p=0,675). However, while the patients with local anesthesia reported lower and moderate pain, patients who did not undergo local anesthesia expressed moderate and severe pain. It may be suggested to the physicians that, local anesthesia can also be offered during the circumcision as an alternative.
