STUDY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF SUBTENON’S ANESTHESIA VERSUS PERIBULBAR ANESTHESIA IN CATARACT SURGERIES.
Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
Aim & Objectives of the study: To compare the safety and effectiveness of subtenon’s anesthesia verusus peribulbar anesthesia in small incision cataract surgeries done at Shri.B.M.Patil medical college hospital Bijapur. Methodology: It is a hospital based study of 150 patients out of which 75 patients underwent small incision cataract surgery under subtenon's anesthesia and 75 patients under peribulbar anesthesia. Sub conjunctival hemorraghe, chemosis, Akinesia and analgesia was graded on a subjective scale and recorded. Effect of anesthesia on IOP was studied. Results: Subtenon's anesthesia was less painful on administration and provided adequate analgesia and akinesia comparable to Peribulbar anesthesia without any complications. Discussion and Conclusion : Subtenon's anesthesia is a safe technique to deliver local anesthesia providing equally good analgesia and akinesia to Peribulbar anesthesia. It is a safe alternative to Peribulbar anesthesia in manual small incision cataract surgery.
