Brief Summary

This trial is a prospective, randomized, single-center, single blinded-analysis trial, the objective of which is compare the postoperative analgesia efficacy of Quadratus lumborum II, Quadratus Lumborum III and Paravertebral blocks in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Detailed Description

Laparoscopic approach in cholecystectomy surgery is frequently preferred because of its advantages in systemic complications, morbidity, mortality and hospital stay. Pain is one of the important causes of late discharge after surgery. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery requires a multimodal analgesia approach because of its multiple pain components.Regional analgesia techniques are effective in reducing the side effects such as intraoperative opioid use, postoperative pain and nausea and vomiting. Quadratus lumborum block and paravertebral plane blocks are regional techniques performed for multimodal analgesia.

The aim of this study is to determine an effective analgesia method by comparing the postoperative analgesic effectiveness of Quadratus Lumborum II, Quadratus Lumborum III and Paravertebral blocks in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Total amount of tramadol usewithin 24 hours after the surgery

The total tramadol use of the patients in 24 hours will be recorded.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
postoperative length of hospital staywithin 1 weeks after the surgery

time to patient's discharge

Block onset time30 min after the block

In order to evaluate sensory block, dermatome involvement will be evaluated with ice between Thoracic 1 and Lumbar 5 levels. When the feeling of coldness disappears, dermatome involvement will be considered. The sensory block formation time with ice will be evaluated as the block onset time, the10th, 20th and 30th minute dermatome area involvement will be recorded.

intraoperative remifentanil consumptionduring operation procedure

The total remifentanil use to be used in the maintenance of 0.05-0.2 mcg/kg remifentanil will be recorded by titration according to the hemodynamic data of the intraoperative patients.

Visual Analogue Scale values at 1st, 6th, 12th and 24th hoursat 1st, 6th, 12th and 24th hours after the surgery

Visual Analogue Scale is a scale of 0-10 cm in length, expressed by non-standard verbal descriptors (no pain-unbearable pain..) indicating the limits of pain intensity on both sides, horizontally or vertically.

side effects such as nausea, vomiting and shoulder painwithin 24 hours after the surgery

The incidence of postoperative side effects such as nausea, vomiting and shoulder pain will be evaluated.
