Cholecystitis, Chronic, Regional Anesthesia Morbidity
Conditions
Brief summary
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, one of the most commonly performed abdominal surgeries, is a gold standard therapy for surgical treatment of benign biliary diseases. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) was first presented in 2016 as the treatment of neuropathic pain in a case series, and gained popularity very quickly due to its safety applicability, and effect on both the visceral and parietal component of pain by providing paravertebral, transforaminal and epidural spread. Preoperative application of ESPB has taken its place as a part of multimodal analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases over time and has been shown to reduce postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption and to improve quality of recovery scores. However, there is no data regarding the use of ESPB in the postoperative period as a rescue therapy.
Interventions
ESPB had been applied postoperatively: from T8 level, 20mL bupivacaine %0,5 + 5ml %2 lidocaine was applied.
IV analgesics had been applied: All meperidine boluses are dosed in line with the pain intensity as follows: 10 mg if NRS \> 3, 20 mg if NRS \> 5, 30 mg if NRS \> 8. If NRS score is not reduced at least 20% when compared to prior one, additional meperidine bolus is applied.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| effect of ESPB applied postoperatively on the meperidine consumption in PACU | 1 HOUR | As part of the standardized perioperative care management, the pain intensity is evaluated with the numeric pain rating scale (NRS). If the NRS is \> 3 meperidine bolus or ESPB is applied in line with the patients' selection and the patients are evaluated in every 5 min in terms of their NRS scores until NRS \< 4 is achieved. If NRS score is not reduced at least 20% when compared to prior one, additional meperidine bolus is applied. All meperidine boluses are dosed in line with the pain intensity as follows: 10 mg if NRS \> 3, 20 mg if NRS \> 5, 30 mg if NRS \> 8. NRS scores and meperidine boluses applied are recorded on the PACU follow-up form. |
