Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Numeric Pain Scale assesment

    A research assistant, blinded to the group allocation, interviewed patients and collected data at 6 times intervals (0.,2.,4.,6.,12 and 24 hours) in the 24 hours postprocedure. Patients will be asked to rate their pain using Numeric Pain Scale, where 0=no pain and 10=worst pain possible.

    24 hours after procedure

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Demographic data

    24 hours after procedure

  • Incidences of adverse effects (like nausea and vomiting)

    24 hours after procedure

Study Arms (2)

Erector spinae plane block group (ESP)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Single-shot ultrasound guided ESP block is performed at the T8 vertebral level before the procedure to all patients in ESP block Group. Then standard sedation method is applied to all patients.

Procedure: Group ESP

Control Group

OTHER

This Group was received no intervention.Standard sedation method is applied to all patients.

Other: Non-blocked Group
