Abstract
Background The caudal block (CB) is a quick, and safe approach for pediatric analgesia. Numerous adjuvants were added to extend the analgesia duration. Our trial aims to evaluate the significance of CB by adding dexmedetomidine, ketamine, and MgSO₄ to bupivacaine to provide postoperative analgesia in children undergoing hypospadias repair.
