Summary

Postoperative analgesia treatment methods are applied to the living in the operating room. It is a routine part of the process of these applications. It is necessary from medical and ethical perspectives. Postoperative analgesia applications are started in the preoperative period and continue in the postoperative period. The analgesic treatment to be used is shaped according to the application and experience of the anesthesiologist. The scientifically accepted developed method is multimodal analgesia protocols. These protocols cover a wide range from paracetamol to opioids, peripheral and central blocks (such as Transversalis Fascial Plane Block (TFPB) and Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) Block). The aim of this study is to continue the analgesia protocols applied in cesarean section surgeries on the first 24-hour pain scores, the amount of opioid consumed after surgery and the quality of obstetric recovery (ObsQoR-10) scale.

These protocols cover a wide range from paracetamol to opioids, peripheral and central blocks (such as Transversalis Fascial Plane Block (TFPB) and Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) Block). In this study, transversus abdominis plane block or transversalis fascial plane block was applied to the participants immediately after surgery. The aim is to continue the analgesia protocols applied to the cesarean section surgeries on the pain scores in the first 24 hours, the amount of opioid consumed after surgery and the quality of obstetric recovery (ObsQoR-10) scale.
