About this study

Official title: Ultrasound-guided Bilateral Quadratus Lumborum Block Versus Erector Spinae Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

The patients were randomly allocated into 3 parallel groups of 20 patients in each group by using computer generated tables. group(Q):received bilateral sonar-guided quadratus lumborum bolck using 20 ml bupivacaine 0.25%on each side.group(E): received bilateral ultrasound-guided erector spinae block using 20 ml bupivaciane 0.25%on each side. group(C):didn't received any block

Read the detailed description

on arrival to the operative room all patients were monitored with standared monitoring. then IV cannula were inserted. preoxygenation with 100% oxygen and induction of GA by 1mic/kg fentanyl and 2 mg/kg of 1%propofol. endotracheal intubation was facilitated by 0.5mg/kg of atracurium. isoflurane 1-2% with oxygen was used for anesthetic maintenance and 0.15 mg/kg intermittent doses of atracurium to maintain adequate muscle relaxation. ventilation was controlled to maintain end tidal CO2 at 35-40 mmHg and SaO2 between 95-100. after stabilization of the patient's hemodynamics and before surgical incision, quadratus lumborum and erector Spinae block were performed according to patient's group by the same anesthetist with the patient in lateral or prone position respectively.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • nerve blockProcedure or surgery

    bilateral ultrasound-guided posterior quadratus lumborum block was done in the lateral decubitus and linear or curvilinear probe was used according to the depth and placed in the midaxillary line in the transverse plane above the iliac crest

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nerve block in people with Postoperative Analgesia, run by Minia University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time of first postoperative analgesic request (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
