Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Opioid consumption

    miligram

    48 hours

  • Measurement of postoperative pain

    VAS (visual analog scale) (0: no pain, 10: the worst pain imaginable)

    48 hours

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Amount of peroperative bleeding

    During surgery

  • Amount of postoperative bleeding

    48 Hours

  • Postoperative complications

    postoperative period up to 3 days

  • Intensive care unit stay

    48 hours

  • Hospital stay

    72 hours

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Study group; Epidural catheter and PCA

EXPERIMENTAL

Epidural 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.

Procedure: Epidural Analgesia

Control group; No block, IC PCA

NO INTERVENTION

Postoperative 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.
