ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking to find out which pain management method works better for children undergoing surgery with skin grafts: the fascia iliaca block or the caudal block. Both methods aim to reduce pain after surgery and help kids feel more comfortable while using fewer pain-relief medications. This study is important because it could lead to better pain management options for young patients.

To participate in this trial, children aged 2 to 12 years who are scheduled for skin grafting surgery and are generally healthy (classified as ASA I or II) may be eligible. However, some children might not be able to join if their guardians refuse to participate, if they have allergies to local anesthetics, or if they have certain medical conditions that could complicate the procedure. If chosen to participate, children will receive one of the two pain management methods, and their pain levels and medication use will be monitored after their surgery.
