Study Arms (2)
Study group; Epidural catheter and PCA
EXPERIMENTALEpidural catheter will be placed in the preoperative period. After induction, 10 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine will be administered through the epidural catheter and bupivacaine PCA will be started.
Control group; No block, IC PCA
NO INTERVENTIONPostoperative pain control will be achieved with intravenous morphine PCA.
Interventions
In the anesthesia preparation room, an epidutal catheter will be placed with a toue needle through the L4-5 spinal space. After induction of general anesthesia, 10 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected through the epidural catheter.Afterwards, peroperative and postoperative analgesia will be provided with epidural PCA.
