The effects of dexamethasone added to ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve (IIN/IHN) block on rebound pain in inguinal hernia surgery: a randomized controlled trial
ConclusionsIn conclusion, adding IV dexamethasone as a part of multimodal analgesia to IIN/IHN block for inguinal hernia surgery resulted in lower MRPS and lower postoperative opioid (tramadol) consumption. For this reason, IV dexamethasone can be added to the IIN/IHN block after inguinal hernia surgery to reduce the incidence of rebound pain, rebound pain scores, and NRS scores for pain, decrease postoperative opioid consumption, and improve the quality of recovery.Clinical trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov: Ref; NCT05172908, Date: December 29, 2021.
