Popis: Background: Several adjuvants can be utilized to improve the quality of peribulbar block (PBB). We compared the effects of adding cisatracurium or hyaluronidase to levobupivacaine and lidocaine mixture for PBB on the onset of globe and lid akinesia in cataract surgery. Methods: 105 adult patients scheduled for cataract surgery under PBB were randomly allocated into three groups. Control group received 4 ml 0.5% levobupivacaine plus 3 ml 2% lidocaine diluted in saline to a total volume of 8 ml. Hyaluronidase 15 IU/ml and cisatracurium 1 mg were added to local anesthetics (LAs) mixture in hyaluronidase and cisatracurium groups respectively. Onset and duration of lid and globe akinesia, time for adequate conditions to start surgery and adverse events were recorded. Distribution of LAs solution was evaluated by B-scan ultrasound at 3 min and 10 min after injection of LAs. Results: Onset of lid and globe akinesia, as well as time to adequate conditions to start surgery, were faster in cisatracurium and hyaluronidase groups compared to the control group (P
