Optimal Patient Positioning for Erector Spinae Plane Block: Effects on Postoperative Analgesia and Patient Satisfaction
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Procedure
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
This randomized clinical study aims to compare the postoperative analgesic efficacy, analgesic consumption, and patient satisfaction of erector spinae plane (ESP) block administered in three different patient positions-lateral, prone, and sitting-in individuals undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The study also evaluates the variation in skin-to-block site distance depending on patient positioning.
