Summary

This clinical trial aims to compare the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) scale scores in three groups of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The first group will be applied subcostal transversus abdominis plane (subcostal TAP) block, the second group will receive local anesthetic infiltration into port sites, and the third group will receive only IV analgesics.

Conditions

  • Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Subcostal TAP block

Subcostal TAP block will be applied after intubation and before surgery. A local anesthetic solution of 20 ml 0.25% bupivacaine for each side will be injected bilaterally between the rectus abdominis and transversus abdominis muscles along the oblique subcostal line. A multimodal routine IV analgesic regimen will be administered intraoperatively (1 gr paracetamol, 8 mg lornoxicam and 1mg/kg tramadol). Patients will receive a standard postoperative multimodal analgesia protocol comprising paracetamol and lornoxicam at the ward. Pain severity will be assessed with a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) rated between 0 and 10; a rescue analgesic IV 50 mg tramadol will be applied when it is four or higher.

OTHER

Port site local anesthetic infiltration

After intubation and before port placements, a solution of 20 ml 0.25% bupivacaine will be infiltrated into the laparoscopic port sites. A multimodal routine IV analgesic regimen will be administered intraoperatively (1 gr paracetamol, 8 mg lornoxicam and 1mg/kg tramadol). Patients will receive a standard postoperative multimodal analgesia protocol comprising paracetamol and lornoxicam at the ward. Pain severity will be assessed with a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) rated between 0 and 10; a rescue analgesic IV 50 mg tramadol will be applied when it is four or higher.

OTHER

No intervention or local anesthetic administration

There will not be an intervention or local anesthetic administration. A multimodal routine IV analgesic regimen will be administered intraoperatively (1 gr paracetamol, 8 mg lornoxicam and 1mg/kg tramadol). Patients will receive a standard postoperative multimodal analgesia protocol comprising paracetamol and lornoxicam at the ward. Pain severity will be assessed with a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) rated between 0 and 10; a rescue analgesic IV 50 mg tramadol will be applied when it is four or higher.
