NCT06172465

Brief Summary

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) surgery causes postoperative severe pain. As part of multimodal analgesia aimed at reducing postoperative opioid consumption and providing effective analgesia, ultrasound (US)-guided transversus abdominis plane block (TAP) and external oblique intercostal plane block (EOIPB) will be applied as regional anesthesia methods. There is no study in the literature comparing OSTAP and EOIP blocks, and our goal is to evaluate the analgesic effectiveness between OSTAP and EOIP blocks in LC surgeries.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative opioid consumption

    tramadol consumption in the first 24 hours after surgery

    up to 24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • NRS scores

    At 1,3, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours

  • Quality of recovery

    24 hours

  • Nausea and vomiting

    At 1,3, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours

Study Arms (2)

group external oblique intercostal plane block

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

While patients are still under general anesthesia, external oblique intercostal block (EOIB) will be performed bilaterally according to appropriate asepsis/antisepsis rules at end of the surgery.

Other: EOIP

group oblique subcostal transversus abdominis plane block

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Ultrasound-guided bilateral OSTAP block performed at end of the surgery. 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

Other: OSTAP

Interventions

EOIPOTHER

Ultrasound guided External oblique intercostal block will be performed bilaterally.
