NCT06264739

Brief Summary

Postoperative pain is common after spinal surgeries, including lumbar disc surgery. Surgical anesthesia and perioperative analgesic regimen are aimed at complete intraoperative amnesia, deep analgesia, effective control of autonomic responses and rapid discharge from the hospital. Although there are many studies on the use of these techniques for postoperative analgesia, the number of data comparing these techniques that can be used in meta-analyses is low. In our study, investigators aimed to compare the effects of remifentanil and dexmedetomidine accompanied by ESP block, which are different multimodal analgesia methods, on pain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • opioid consumption

    Patients' opioid consumption on the PCA device will be recorded at 0, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours postoperatively.

    24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    24 hours

Study Arms (2)

group 1

OTHER

Dexmedetomidine (dekstomid) infusion will be administered for intraoperative analgesia.

Drug: esp Dexmedetomidine (dekstomid)

group 2

OTHER

remifentanyl (ultiva) infusion will be administered for intraoperative analgesia.

Drug: esp remifentanyl (ultiva)

Interventions

After anesthesia and surgical procedures, bilateral ESP block will be applied under ultrasonography guidance from the midline 3 cm lateral from the T10 level. After cleaning the area with povidone-iodine before the block, the T10 transverse protrusion will be determined using a linear ultrasound probe. Local anesthetic will be applied between the transverse process and the erector spinae muscle with the help of an insulated needle designed for peripheral block procedures. The location of the needle will be confirmed by hydrodissection with physiological saline without local anesthesia. After the location of the needle is confirmed, 20 ml of LA and saline mixture will be applied and the same process will be repeated in the contralateral side. Of the total 40 ml LA, 20 ml will consist of bupivacaine 0.5% (marcaine), 10 ml will consist of lidocaine 2% (aritmal), and 10 ml will consist of physiological saline.
