Summary

This study evaluates the compare the effects of ultrasound guided TAP block, local anesthetic infiltration to the incision line and intravenous dexketoprofen on postoperative analgesic efficacy and rescue tramadol consumption in inguinal hernia repairs.

Detailed description

Currently, multimodal techniques are used in inguinal hernia repairs in addition to pharmacological and regional techniques for postoperative analgesia.TAP block is performed on the principle of hydrodissection of the fascia between the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscles of the abdominal wall muscles with local anesthetic drugs. Local anesthetic drugs provide analgesic effect up to 24 hours in the postoperative period by blocking the T6-L1 nerves in the facial plane. Local anesthetic infiltration which is one of the regional anesthetic techniques, is another method of postoperative analgesia. intravenous analgesic drug is also used as pharmacological postoperative analgesia method in most clinics.

Conditions

• Inguinal Hernia
