Comparison of Abdominal Plane Blocks in Postoperative Pain Control in Patients Undergoing LSG

Recruiting
18-65 years
Both
Phase N/A

In this study, doctors want to find out which method helps reduce pain better after a surgery called laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This surgery helps people lose weight. The two methods being compared are called TAP and M-TAPA blocks. These blocks are special ways to give medicine that stops pain without using regular painkillers. Both methods involve injecting medicine around muscles in the belly area. The main question is whether the M-TAPA block is better at reducing pain, nausea, and the need for more pain medicine than the TAP block. Participants will be watched for 24 hours after surgery to see how well each method works.

  • **Study Duration:** January 26, 2023, to May 15, 2024
  • **Participants:** 60 patients having LSG, divided into two groups of 30 each
  • **Eligibility:** Ages 18-65, excluding those with certain health issues like heart or liver problems
