Summary

The aim of this study to evaluate efficacy of ultrasound guided regional anesthesia in performing awake tympanoplasty surgery versus traditional general anesthesia

Detailed description

* To evaluate ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia versus general anesthesia in patients undergoing tympanoplasty as regards: * To assess the time of discharge from post anesthesia care unit * To assess intraoperative hemodynamic parameters, quality of the surgical field and the block success rate (number of patients converted to general anesthesia). * To assess postoperative parameters: Numerical Rating Scale , time to first request of analgesia, postoperative opioid consumption, patient and surgeon satisfaction in both groups. * To assess the incidence of block-related complications (such as nerve injury, hematoma, inadequate block, or local anesthetic toxicity) or surgery related complications as nausea and vomiting

Conditions

• Ultrasound Guided Nerve Block
• Anesthesia , Analgesia

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia group	patients will receive regional anesthesia using ultrasound guidance. Target nerves (e.g., great auricular nerve, auriculotemporal nerve and lesser occipital nerve) will be identified and anesthetized under real-time ultrasound visualization to ensure accurate needle placement and local anesthetic spread.
OTHER	Control group	patients will receive general anesthesia.
