Öğe Efficacy of Topical Levobupivacaine in Control of Postoperative Pain after Septoplasty(Bmc, 2010) Yilmaz, Suleyman; Akbay, Buket Kocaman; Yildizbas, Sahnur; Guclu, Ender; Yaman, Huseyin; Sezen, Gulbin YalcinObjective: To search the efficacy of using Merocele (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) soaked with 5 mL of levobupivacaine hydrocloride as a nasal pack in control of postoperative pain after septoplasty. Design: The study was designed as a prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled study. Forty-one patients who underwent septoplasty operation were included in the analysis. Setting: A tertiary referral hospital in Turkey. Material and Methods: Forty-one patients undergoing septoplasty were divided into two groups. At the end of the operation, Merocele packs were placed inside the nasal cavity. In the levobupivacaine group, each Merocele pack was soaked with 5 mL of levobupivacaine hydrochloride (25 mg/10 mL), and in the control group, Merocele packs were soaked with 5 mL of saline. Main Outcome Measures: Postoperative pain levels were recorded using a visual analogue scale (VAS score, 0-100) at 30 minutes and 1, 2, 8, 12, and 24 hours. Results: We did not find any significant difference between groups regarding age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists status, and body mass index. Postoperative VAS values at 30 minutes and 1, 2, 8, and 12 hours were significantly lower in the levobupivacaine group compared with the control group (p < .05). The need for supplemental analgesia was significantly lower in the levobupivacaine group compared with the control group (p < .01) Conclusion: Postoperative pain after septoplasty owing to nasal packing is an important problem, and using levobupivacaine-soaked Merocele as a nasal pack after septoplasty is an effective method for the control of this pain. It is a very easy, effective, and quick method and it improves patient comfort after septoplasty.Öğe Topical Levobupivacaine Efficacy in Pain Control after Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery(Sage Publications Inc, 2013) Yilmaz, Suleyman; Yildizbas, Sahnur; Guclu, Ender; Yaman, Huseyin; Sezen, Gulbin YalcinObjectiveThe aim of this study was to find out the efficacy of a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) sponge (Merocel Kennedy; Medtronic Xomed, Jacksonville, Florida) sinus pack soaked with levobupivacaine hydrochloride to control postoperative pain and analgesic need following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Study DesignThe study was designed as a prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled study. Forty-one patients who underwent FESS were included in the analysis. SettingA tertiary referral hospital in Turkey. Materials and MethodsPatients who underwent FESS were divided into 2 groups. The PVA sponge sinus packs were soaked with 5 mL of levobupivacaine hydrochloride (chirocaine 25 mg/10 mL; Abbott, Nycomed Pharma AS, Elverum, Norway) in group I and with 5 mL of saline in group II. Main Outcome MeasuresPostoperative pain levels were recorded using a visual analog scale (VAS score, 0-100) at 30 minutes and 1, 2, 8, 12, and 24 hours. ResultsThere were no statistically significant differences between groups regarding age, sex, and American Society of Anesthesiologists status. Postoperative VAS values at 30 minutes and 1, 2, 8, 12, and 24 hours were significantly lower in group I than in group II (P <. 05). Supplemental analgesia amount was significantly lower in group I than in group II (P =. 003). ConclusionUsing levobupivacaine-soaked PVA sponge sinus packs after FESS is an effective, easy, and quick method to control postoperative pain, and it improves patient comfort and tolerability.Öğe Topical Levobupivacaine Efficacy in Pain Control after Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery(Sage Publications Inc, 2013) Yilmaz, Suleyman; Yildizbas, Sahnur; Guclu, Ender; Yaman, Huseyin; Sezen, Gulbin YalcinObjective.
