Effects of Erector Spinae Plane Block and Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum Block on Postoperative Opioid Consumption in Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) is a common surgical procedure that is frequently associated with substantial postoperative pain. As part of multimodal analgesia, the erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (TQLB) have been demonstrated to be effective. This study aimed to evaluate whether ESPB and TQLB reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption after TLH.

Methods

A total of 90 female patients undergoing TLH were randomized to receive either ESPB, TQLB, or no intervention before general anesthesia. All patients received a patient-controlled sufentanil analgesia postoperatively. Postoperative pain and sufentanil consumption were evaluated. The primary outcome was cumulative sufentanil consumption at 12 h postoperat
