Summary

The goal of this prospective observational study is to compare the effectiveness of different postoperative analgesic techniques in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery for gynecologic oncology.

The main question is whether the combination of TAP block with Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) or Rectus Sheath Block (RSB) provides superior pain relief compared to TAP block alone.

All blocks were performed as part of routine clinical anesthesia practice according to the attending anesthesiologist's judgment. No randomization, allocation, or study-directed intervention was performed.

Patients were classified into three groups based on the block type they received during standard care:

Group 1: TAP Block Only

Group 2: TAP + QLB Combination

Group 3: TAP + RSB Combination

Postoperative data, including pain scores (VAS), opioid consumption, sedation level, heart rate, blood pressure, nausea/vomiting, and length of hospital stay, were collected prospectively.

The study aims to determine which block combination provides the best postoperative pain control and recovery profile in patients undergoing gynecologic oncology surgery.

Conditions

  • Gynecologic Cancers
  • Postoperative Pain Management

Interventions

OTHER

Group 3: TAP Block + Rectus Sheath Block (RSB)

Patients who received TAP block combined with Rectus Sheath Block (RSB) as part of routine anesthesia practice. The block technique was performed according to clinical judgment, not as part of a study intervention.

OTHER

Group 2: TAP Block + Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB)

Patients who received TAP block combined with Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) during routine anesthesia management. This block combination was chosen by the attending anesthesiologist as part of standard care, not assigned by the study.

OTHER

Group 1:The Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block

Patients who received only Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block as part of routine clinical anesthesia practice. No study-assigned intervention or randomization was performed. Data were collected prospectively from standard anesthesia records.
