Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that erector spinae plane block will decrease intraoperative local anesthetic and postoperative analgesic consumption in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy.

Detailed description

Patients who decided to participate in the study will be randomized into 2 groups: Erector Spinae Plane Block Group (Group E) and Control Group (Group C). Intraoperative local anesthetic consumption, postoperative tramadol consumption, intraoperative and pain scores, hemodynamic parameters and patient satisfaction will be recorded.

Conditions

• Pain

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Erector spinae plane block	The block will be performed before the surgery. The spinous process of T2 or T3 wil be identified by an ultrasound guide, with the probe positioned longitudinally. A block needle will be inserted in the caudo-cephal direction. After the injection site is confirmed by 3 ml of physiological solution and correct position of the needle tip is confirmed, bupivacaine will be injected. The patients assigned to this group will also receive an intravenous patient-controlled analgesia device containing tramadol postoperatively.
OTHER	Control group	Control group will receive only patient-controlled analgesia device containing tramadol. No block will be performed.
