Condition: Erector Spina Plan Block · Opioid Consumption · Postoperative Pain · Sponsor: Ankara Ataturk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital
Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is an increasingly common spine disorder . In patients treated surgically, inhalation anesthesia and the use of opioids for analgesic purposes are generally the chosen anesthetic methods. Surgical techniques such as discectomy, microdiscectomy, and stabilization (REF) are used to treat LDH. Although discectomy is considered the primary option in the treatment of LDH, less invasive techniques such as microdiscectomy have been applied in recent years . However, despite the use of less invasive techniques, patients experience pain after surgery . Clinicians want to avoid complications such as thromboembolism and hemodynamic deterioration that may occur due to postoperative pain, and to apply effective pain treatment for patient comfort and rapid discharge from the hospital. It has also been stated that inadequate postoperative pain treatment may increase the risk of developing chronic pain. Therefore, the use of opioids for analgesic purposes in the intraoperative and postoperative periods is quite common. However, opioid use may cause side effects that negatively affect postoperative recovery and may delay discharge. Some of these situations include delayed recovery from anesthesia, failure to perform early postoperative neurological examination due to delayed recovery, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), pruritus, urinary retention, respiratory depression, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and addiction. Another important issue is the difficulty…
