Brief Summary
Surgeon guided serratus block, which can be performed by the surgeon in participants undergoing breast reduction surgery, may reduce the sensation of pain from the surgical field in the postoperative period. Thus, participants experience less pain in the postoperative period, consume less analgesics, and there is a decrease in related complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the intraoperative surgeon guided serratus block applied on the analgesic consumption of the participants in the first 24 hours after surgery in participants undergoing breast reduction surgery.

24 hours postoperatively opioid consumption
In the postoperative period, patients will be given opioids according to their pain density with a patient-controlled device, and the daily Morphine consumption in Patient Controlled Analgesia device will be collected and compared between groups.
24 hours
Secondary Outcomes (1)
post-operative acute pain status, post-operative nausea-vomiting status, post-operative NRS determination of pain at rest and in motion determination of complications such as nausea, vomiting, itching, determination of the first PCA analgesic request.
