Comparison of Transversalis Fascia Plane Block and Erector Spinae Plane Blocks in Cesarean Section
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Cesarean section is one of the most common major surgical procedures performed worldwide,, Post-cesarean analgesia should provide adequate pain control while allowing the mother to remain active to meet the needs of the baby. Insufficient analgesia after cesarean section may be associated with acute postoperative pain, chronic pain, higher opioid consumption, delayed functional capacity, and postpartum depression. Techniques such as neuraxial techniques, oral and intravenous agents, wound infiltration, and behavioral therapy can be used in the treatment of post-cesarean pain pain. In addition, Transversus abdominis plane block (TAP), Quadratus Lumborum block (QLB), Erector Spina block (ESP), Transversalis Fascia plane block (TFP) are used safely under ultrasound guidance. In this study, it was aimed primarily to examine the effects of TFP and ESP blocks on pain scores, and secondarily to evaluate analgesic consumption.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Opioid Consumption [Postoperative first 24 hours]
