Overview

Brief Summary

The External oblique intercostal plane (EOIP)

block is a novel technique reported by Hamilton

et al. performed by administering LA superior or

deep of the external oblique muscle from the

sixth intercostal space leading to the blockage of

thoracoabdominal nerves at T6-T10.

The subcostal transverse abdominis plane

(SCTAP) block is the deposition of local anesthetic

in the transverse abdominis plane inferior and

parallel to the costal margin.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES

To evaluate efficacy of USG guided external

oblique block versus Subcostal Transverse

abdominus plane block

Patients Included in study will be randomly

divided in two equal groups of 50 each

Group A : ultrasonography guided external

oblique block

Group B : ultrasonography guided subcostal

transverse abdominis plane block

Block to be administered postoperatively ,

immediately on completion of surgery prior to

extubation.

0.2% Ropivacaine with 100 µg to be used as

drug solution 20 ml on either side in both

groups.
