Summary

Relieving postoperative nephrectomy pain requires multimodal approaches. Peripheral blocks such as ESP block and M-TAPA block and multimodal analgesics reduce side effects by reducing the use of other analgesics. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of erector spinae plane block (ESP block) and modified thoracoabdominal nerve blocking with perichondrial approach (M-TAPA block) in postoperative analgesia management in nephrectomy cases.

Detailed description

Relieving postoperative nephrectomy pain requires multimodal approaches. The most commonly used in the treatment of pain are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, and infiltration of local anesthetics. Due to the side effects of NSAIDs and opioids, the application of regional analgesia techniques can reduce complications while providing better analgesia quality. Peripheral blocks such as ESP block and M-TAPA block and multimodal analgesics reduce side effects by reducing the use of other analgesics. Pain is considered one of the most important factors affecting the quality of healing. Postoperative pain delays the postanesthesia care unit, hospital stay, early ambulation, increases resource utilization, and negatively affects patient satisfaction. If postoperative analgesia is provided, all these negativities will be eliminated. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of erector spinae plane block (ESP block) and modified thoracoabdominal nerve blocking with perichondrial approach (M-TAPA block) in postoperative analgesia management in nephrectomy cases.
