April 24, 2017 updated by: Erika Basso Ricci, Istituti Ospitalieri di Cremona

Comparison of Local Anesthetic Infiltration, Trasversalis Fascia Block or Spinal Anesthesia for Inguinal Hernia Repair

Propose to comparison effectiveness of blind local anesthetic infiltration with ultrasound guided Transversals Fascia Block and Spinal Anesthesia in patients undergoing to inguinal hernia repair surgery. The effectiveness is defined as pain control during intraoperative and time need to reach hospital discharge criteria in the post-operative period.
