Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine the efficacy and safety of the bilateral suprazygomatic maxillary nerve block for cleft palate repair in children with congenital malformation, cleft palate. The study was carried out on 55 patients with primary cleft palate repair. The average age of the patients was 1 year 8 months±6 months. Patients were divided into 2 groups. In the main group, general anesthesia, local anesthesia and bilateral suprazygomatic maxillary nerve block were performed. In the control group, general anesthesia and local anesthesia were performed. The severity of the pain syndrome in children was assessed according to the FLACC scale. In addition, the dose opioid analgesics (tramadol) was taken into account on the 1st day; satisfaction with anesthesia and analgesia. Results for the main group: FLACC indicators were kept longer at a low level; less consumption of opioid analgesics. No complications were observed on the bilateral suprazygomatic maxillary nerve block. The bilateral suprazygomatic maxillary nerve block for primary cleft palate repair in children provides a better quality of anesthesia, and, especially postoperative analgesia.
