Brief summary

The pudendal nerve conveys sensory, motor, sympathetic fibres to the perineum, bladder neck and proximal urethra. Pain management during transurethral procedures is a major concern.Patients who have been catheterized under anesthesia complained of urgency in the postoperative period because of catheter-related bladder irritation. We want to investigate that the effect of pudendal block to postoperative pain, bladder spasm and patient comfort in transurethral prostatectomies

Detailed description

Outcome measures USG guided transperineal pudendal block success Postoperative pain score (VAS score) Postoperative bladder spasm (Severity of bladder discomfort will record as severe(behavioral responses such as strong vocal response, flailing limbs),moderate (not accompanied by any behavioral responses) and no bladder discomfort. Postoperative patient's comfort (poor, sufficient, good)

Interventions

PROCEDUREPudendal nerve block

the pudendal nerve block is going to be performed to the medial of ischial tuberosity with USG guidance in lithotomy position
