Brief summary
This prospective, randomized control study aims to compare the analgesic effect, satisfaction with anesthesia and analgesia between single-injection QLB (quadratus lumborum block)+general anesthesia (GA) and general anesthesia (GA) alone in patients undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy.
Interventions
Inject 0.4ml/kg 0.5% ropivacaine between quadratus lumborum and psoas major muscle Device: The curved (C1-5) probe of Ultrasound Scanner Philips CX50 is used for scan Drug: single dose ropivacaine 0.4ml/kg 0.5% ropivacaine is given immediately after the correct position of needle tip is verified.
Inject 0.4ml/kg saline between quadratus lumborum and psoas major muscle Device: The curved (C1-5) probe of Ultrasound Scanner Philips CX50 is used for scan Drug: single dose 0.4ml/kg 0.9% NS is given immediately after the correct position of the needle tip is verified
