Evaluation of Post-Operative Analgesic Efficacy of Bilateral External Oblique Intercostal Plane Block Versus Wound Site Infiltration Control Group in Patients Underwent Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery

SUMMARY

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, while less painful compared to conventional methods, is still a surgery that can cause significant pain for patients. Preventing postoperative pain is crucial for reducing respiratory complications, shortening hospital stays, and increasing patient satisfaction. Interfascial plane blocks have been widely used for postoperative analgesia in recent years worldwide. The External Oblique Intercostal Plane Block is one of the interfascial plane blocks used in abdominal surgeries. In our study, we aimed to compare the postoperative pain scores of patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia, specifically between those who received the external oblique intercostal plane block and those who had trocar entry site infiltration.

Treatments
Active_comparator: Grup E (External Oblique Intercostal Plane Block)
At the end of the surgical procedure,a high-frequency linear probe will be sterilely covered,and an 80mm block needle will be used for the procedure.Under sterile conditions,the ultrasound probe will be placed in a parasagittal position in the area between the anterior axillary line and the midclavicular line at the level of the 10th rib, and then slid cranially along the longitudinal axis to the level of the 6th and 7th ribs. After visualizing the external oblique muscle, the block needle will be inserted using an in-plane technique,and 5ml of saline will be administered to confirm the location at the external oblique intercostal plane between the external oblique muscle and the 6th rib. Once the location is confirmed, 20cc of 0.25%bupivacaine will be infiltrated into the EOIP. The same procedure will be applied to the opposite side (totally 40 ml).
Other: Grup T ( Trocar entry site infiltration)
After the trocar removed during the surgical procedure, the surgeon will administer 5 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine infiltration to each trocar entry site.
