Comparison of Different Epidural Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Mixtures for Lower Limb Surgeries (LBM-LLS)
Comparison of the Outcomes of Epidural Injection of Different Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Mixtures for Lower Limb Surgeries at a Tertiary Care Hospital, Karachi
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate different epidural lidocaine-bupivacaine mixtures in patients undergoing lower limb surgery at a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan. Ninety-six participants will be randomly assigned to one of three study groups receiving different combinations of lidocaine and bupivacaine for epidural anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to determine which anesthetic mixture provides the most effective anesthesia for lower limb surgery. The study will compare the speed of onset and duration of anesthesia, as well as the effects of the anesthetic mixtures on cardiovascular stability during surgery.
The results of this study may help identify an epidural anesthetic regimen that provides optimal surgical conditions, effective pain control, and stable hemodynamic parameters for patients undergoing lower limb procedures.
調査の概要

詳細な説明
Lower limb surgeries are commonly associated with significant perioperative and postoperative pain, requiring effective anesthetic techniques to provide adequate analgesia and improve patient outcomes. Epidural anesthesia is widely used because it offers effective intraoperative anesthesia, prolonged postoperative pain relief, improved physiological responses to surgical stress, and enhanced patient satisfaction. Local anesthetic agents such as lidocaine and bupivacaine are commonly administered for epidural blockade due to their different pharmacological characteristics.
Lidocaine has a rapid onset of action but a relatively shorter duration, whereas bupivacaine provides prolonged analgesia but has a slower onset of action. Combining these agents may provide the advantages of both drugs by achieving rapid onset with longer duration of action while maintaining hemodynamic stability.
This randomized controlled trial will be conducted at the Department of Anaesthesiology and Surgical ICU, Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Institute of Trauma, Karachi. Ninety-six patients aged 20-60 years, ASA class I and II, undergoing lower limb surgeries under epidural anesthesia will be enrolled and randomized equally into three groups.
Group A: 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine + 5 ml of 2% lidocaine Group B: 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine + 2.5 ml of 2% lidocaine + 2.5 ml normal saline Group C: 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine + 5 ml normal saline
The primary outcomes assessed will include time to onset of sensory blockade at T10 level, time to onset of motor blockade to Bromage Grade II, and duration of motor blockade until recovery to Bromage Grade I. Hemodynamic variables including mean arterial pressure and heart rate will also be recorded and compared among groups.
The study aims to determine the optimal epidural lidocaine-bupivacaine mixture that provides faster onset of anesthesia, adequate duration of block, and stable hemodynamic effects in patients undergoing lower limb surgeries.

実験的：Group A - High-dose Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Mixture
Group A High-dose Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Mixture Participants will receive epidural administration of 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine mixed with 5 ml of 2% lidocaine (total volume 15 ml).

Intervention 1: Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Epidural Mixture (High-dose Lidocaine) Epidural administration of a total volume of 15 ml containing 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine and 5 ml of 2% lidocaine for anesthesia during lower limb surgery. Intervention 2: Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Epidural Mixture (Low-dose Lidocaine) Epidural administration of a total volume of 15 ml containing 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine, 2.5 ml of 2% lidocaine, and 2.5 ml of normal saline for anesthesia during lower limb surgery. Intervention 3: Bupivacaine Epidural Mixture (Control) Epidural administration of a total volume of 15 ml containing 10 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine and 5 ml of normal saline for anesthesia during lower limb surgery. These descriptions clearly distinguish the three interventions by composition and total volume.
