Comparion of Erector Spinae Plane Block and Quadratus Lumborum Block in Laparoskopic Cholecystectomy

Erector Spinae Plane Block is a newly defined regional anesthesia technique. Its use for many indications has been identified by case reports in the literature. As the investigators have considered that erector spinae plane block could be efficacious for providing postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the investigators have implemented the application of this blockade into practice at the clinic.Quadratus Lumborum block (QLB) type 2 is another regional anesthesia technic used for postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Main purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae block and QLB in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Treatment and study plan

Erector Spinae Plane Block

Procedure

Ultrasound-guided bilateral Erector spinae plane (ESP) block performed before 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 names: Standard Pain Followup and Monitorization

quadratus lumborum block

Procedure

Ultrasound-guided bilateral Quadratus lumborum (QLB) type 2 block performed before 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 names: Standard Pain Followup and Monitorization

Primary outcomes

  1. analgesic consumption

    Time frame: 24 hours

    opioid consumption in Patient Controlled Analgesia device

Secondary outcomes

  1. NRS scores

    Time frame: 24 hours

    Changes in Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at rest and on movement will be recorded at intervals. NRS is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity in adults. The NRS is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable").
