Abstract

To compare the analgesic efficacy of Scalp block with 0.25% Bupivacaine vs Pre Incisional Local infiltration with 0.25% Bupivacaine with Adrenaline(1:400,000) in patients undergoing elective Craniotomies. Inconclusion, Scalp block with 0.25% Bupivacaine is effective and superior to Pre-Incisional Local infiltration with 0.25% Bupivacaine with 1:4,00,000 Adrenaline in attenuating hemodynamic responses to noxious stimuli. Scalp block also provides increased duration of post operative analgesia when compared with local infiltration. Scalp Block also results in significant reduction in intraoperative opioids and post operative rescue analgesic requirements.
