Study summary

This study aims to the comparison of Quadratus Lumborum Block 2 and Transversus Abdominis Plan Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Abdominal Surgery

Read the detailed description

This study aims to the comparison of Quadratus Lumborum Block 2 and Transversus Abdominis Plan Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Abdominal Surgery.

In abdominal surgeries, USG guided body blocks are performed for postoperative analgesia. For this purpose, Transversus Abdominis Plan Block (TAPB) and Quadratus Lumborum Block 2 (QLB 2) are frequently used blocks.

The aim of this study was to evaluate for postoperative analgesia of preoperative trunk blocks, intraoperative hemodynamic changes with the unblocked control group, Modified Aldrete Recovery Score (MADS) 9 in the recovery unit, Numerical pain scale (NRS) in the service department, It is aimed to examine and compare the time it reaches on the 1st, 2nd and 24th hours after this period. Patient satisfaction is also evaluated in the ward.

    Groups T

    In abdominal surgeries, USG guided TAP blocks are performed for postoperative analgesia. For this purpose, TAP blocks are frequently used blocks. The aim to this study was to evaluate the postoperative analgesia of preoperative trunk blocks, intraoperative hemodynamic changes with the unblocked control group, Modified Aldrete Recovery Score (MADS) 9 in the recovery unit, Numerical pain scale (NRS) in the service department, It is aimed to examine and compare the time it reaches on the 1st, 2nd and 24th hours after this period.

    Procedure: trunk blocks

  • No intervention
    Groups C

    There was no intervention. All patients will receive pre-oxygenation with O2 100% for 3 min. Anesthesia will be induced by using fentanyl 1μg/kg, propofol 1.5-2 mg/kg, and atracurium 0.5 mg/kg will be used for muscle relaxation. Anesthesia will be maintained by controlled ventilation with oxygen and air (50:50) with the target of EtCO2≈ 35-40 mmHg, isoflurane 1:1.5 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). Anesthesia will be discontinued and tracheal extubation will be done once the patient fulfills the extubation criteria.Tramadol 100 mg i.v. Before 15 min end of surgery. The patient control analgesia device will administer all patients.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Postoperative pain

    The degree of pain will be measured with a numerical rating scale (NRS). All patients' postoperative pain logarithmic rating scale (NRS-numeric rating scale; 0 = absence of pain, 10 = unbearable pain) will be recorded in both groups.

    Time frame: 1 hours

  2. Postoperative pain

    The degree of pain will be measured with numerical rating scale (NRS). All patients' postoperative pain numerical rating scale (NRS-numeric rating scale; 0 = absence of pain, 10 = unbearable pain) will be recorded in both groups.

    Time frame: 2 hours

  3. Postoperative pain

    The degree of pain will be measured with numerical rating scale (NRS). All patients' postoperative pain numerical rating scale (NRS-numeric rating scale; 0 = absence of pain, 10 = unbearable pain) will be recorded in both groups.

    Time frame: 4 hours

  4. The degree of postoperative pain

    The degree of pain will be measured with a numerical rating scale (NRS). All patients' postoperative pain numerical rating scale (NRS-numeric rating scale; 0 = absence of pain, 10 = unbearable pain) will be recorded in both groups.

    Time frame: 24 hours
