Detailed description

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of field block with lidocaine 2% (5 ml) administered with a 24G hypodermic needle before spinal anesthesia for patients undergoing LSCS, in preventing the development of postoperative low back pain (PDPB). The study aimed to determine if using a field block would decrease the incidence of PDPB compared to patients who received only spinal anesthesia.
