NCT06660953

Brief Summary

Renal transplantation is an increasingly common surgery in recent years. Opioid and/or NSAID use is common in postoperative pain management. However, these drugs have many side effects. Peripheral blocks provide more effective analgesia both intra and postoperatively, and also reduce the use of systemic drugs. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of two different nerve blocks (ESP vs QLB II) on intraoperative remifentanil dose and postoperative analgesia.

Interventions

For ESP, high frequency linear ultrasound probe was planned transversely to the midline and spinous features were visualized. Cervical C7 and T7 vertebrae at the lower end of the scapula, which were accepted as landmarks, were determined and marked with a sterile surgical drawing pen. According to these landmarks, the USG probe was moved 2-3 cm laterally towards the points where kidney transplantation was planned at the T10 vertebral level, and the transverse parts, trapezius, latissimus dorsi, serratus and erector spina muscles were visualized. Using the block needle that can be visualized on USG with in-plane surgery, the skin, subcutaneous tissue and trapezius, latissimus dorsi, serratus and erector spina muscles were passed in a cranio caudal direction and the needle location was confirmed by hydrodissection with 2-5 ml of serum. The distribution of the block procedure and the spread of local anesthetic were linearly visualized with 10 ml bupivacaine and 10 ml 0.9% saline.

Group E

The QL block II was done under aseptic technique, in lateral position with the side intended to block side up. A high frequency ultrasound linear probe covered in sterile sheath was placed anterior and superior to the iliac crest. The three anterior abdominal muscles were visualized. The external oblique muscle was followed posterolaterally until its posterior border was identified. Subsequently, the probe was tilted towards the attachment site of both the internal and external oblique muscles over the quadratus (QL) muscle until the midline of the thoracolumbar fascia was seen as a bright hyperechogenic line located between the posterior border of the quadratus lumborum muscle and the middle thoraco-lumbar fascia (anterior to latissiumus dorsi and erector spinae muscles). A 22-gauge Facet-tip SonoPlex needle of appropriate length estimated from the depth and length of required needle trajectory during scout scanning was inserted via in-plane technique. The needle was directed from a
