Primary

MeasureTime frame
The sensory level of the block. Timepoint: Measuring the patient's sensory block level at intervals of 1 minute to 20 minutes and then during and after surgery at intervals of 10 minutes until reaching T10. Method of measurement: It was examined bilaterally with the tip of the spinal needle along the midaxillary line.;The motor level of the block. Timepoint: Measuring the patient's motor block level at intervals of 1 minute to 20 minutes and then during and after surgery at intervals of 10 minutes until reaching T10. Method of measurement: The motor block was assessed using the Modi?ed Bromage scale.;Pain assessment. Timepoint: After the sensory level returned to T10, every 30 minutes, the patient's pain sensation in the surgical site, abdomen and pelvis will be evaluated with the help of VAS score until the time of reaching 6 = VAS score will be recorded. Method of measurement: Visual analog pain scale (VAS).;Side effecs of anesthesia. Timepoint: The side effects of anesthesia will be measured after surgery for one week (the first two days every 8 hours and until the end of the week once a day).
