Erector Spinae Plane Block and Subcostal Transverse Abdominis Plane Block in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Postoperative Pain
Interventions
Other: Standard Pain Followup and Monitorization
Registration Number
NCT04116008
Lead Sponsor
Baskent University
Brief Summary

Erector Spinae Plane Block is a newly defined regional anesthesia technique. Its use for many indications has been identified by case reports in the literature. As the investigators have considered that erector spinae plane block could be efficacious for providing postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the investigators have implemented the application of this blockade into practice at the clinic Subcostal transverse abdominis plane block (STAP) is another regional anesthesia technic used for postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Main purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae block and STAP in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

GroupInterventionDescription
Erector Spinae BlockStandard Pain Followup and MonitorizationUltrasound-guided bilateral Erector spinae plane block performed at end of the surgery with 40 ml of a bupivacaine/prilocaine mixture. Perioperative and postoperative routine analgesic protocol will be performed (consist of intravenous analgesics and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia) with no additional intervention (block) Standard Pain Followup and Monitorization will be performed.
Subcostal Abdominis Plane BlockStandard Pain Followup and MonitorizationUltrasound-guided bilateral STAP block performed at end of the surgery with 40 ml of a bupivacaine/prilocaine mixture. Perioperative and postoperative routine analgesic protocol will be performed (consist of intravenous analgesics and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia) with no additional intervention (block) Standard Pain Followup and Monitorization will be performed.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pain Score24 hours

Changes in Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at rest and on movement will be recorded at intervals. NRS is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity in adults. The NRS is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable").
