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.
