About this study

Official title: One-Puncture Versus Multipoint Technique of Rectus Sheath Block With Transverse Abdominis Plane Block for Analgesia After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

the purpose of this study is to compare of better postoperative analgesia following laparoscopic cholecystectomy using either one puncture rectus sheath block with transverse abdominis plane block or multipoint technique

after being informed about the study and potential risks. All patients giving written consent will be randomized by double blind manner into 3 groups each one containing 34In the One puncture \"O\" group (n= 34): The patient will receive one-puncture technique of RSB combined with TAPB.

In the Multipoint \"M \" group (n= 34): The patient will receive multipoint technique of RSB combined with TAPB.

In the Control \"C \" group (n=34 ): The patient will receive patient controlled analgesia\&;PCA\&

Being tested
US-guided RSB and TAPB by one-puncture technique., multipont

What participants receive

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

  • US-guided RSB and TAPB by one-puncture technique.Procedure or surgery

    The probe will be positioned transversely in the midline of the abdomen, between the xiphoid process and the umbilicus, revealing the linea alba. It was then moved outward along the costal margin, demonstrating the rectus abdominis overlapping the transverse abdominis. A 22-gauge, 120-mm ultrasound-visible block needle will be inserted from the inner side . Under direct vision, we will reach the posterior rectus abdominis sheath and pierced the anterior layer of the posterior sheath. Saline was injected to adjust its position. After that, 15 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be administered (aspiration was performed for every 5 mL injection), and we will observe the local anesthetic spreading inward . Then, the needle will break through the posterior layer of the tendon, and saline will be injected to confirm the needle's placement in the transversus abdominis plane. After confirming the tip placement, 15 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be slowly injected. The needle tip will be advanced al

  • multipontProcedure or surgery

    , the probe will be moved outward along the costal margin until the external oblique muscle, internal oblique muscle, and transverse abdominis muscle will be visible [9]. The needle will be inserted in-plane until the tip was positioned in the plane between the internal oblique muscle and the transverse abdominis muscle. Then, 15 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected . The contralateral nerve block will be performed using the same method and volume of anesthetic solution.

    For the RSB, the same technique will be done as one puncture technique. Then, 15 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine will be injected . The contralateral nerve block will be performed using the same method and volume of anesthetic solution.

controlNo interventionnalbuphine (2 mg/kg) and normal saline to a total volume of 150 mL, with a background infusion rate of 2 mL/h, a bolus dose of 2 mL, a lockout interval of 15 min, and a maximum limit of 10 mL within 1 h.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The total postoperative opioid consumption in the first 24 hours.

    opioid consumption

    Measured: 24 hours postoperative

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The block performance time

    the time from the placement of the ultrasound probe on the patient's skin to the end of the local anesthetic injection

    Measured: up to 5 minutes

  2. Onset of sensory block

    the time from the end of the injection of local anesthetic (bupivacaine) to the loss of pinprick sensation using a sterile 25-G needle in the operation field.

    Measured: up to 30 minutes

  3. The Numerical Pain Rating Scale

    A ten-centimeter Numerical Pain Rating Scale (0 - no pain and 10 - worst pain)

    Measured: 24 hours postoperative

  4. Patient satisfaction

    The patient satisfactionwill be assessed using the 7-point Likert-like verbal rating scale The patientwill be asked to express his satisfaction

    1. extremely dissatisfied.
    2. Dissatisfied.
    3. somewhat dissatisfied.
    4. unsatisfied.
    5. somewhat satisfied.
    6. Satisfied.
    7. extremely satisfied.

    Measured: 24 hour postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing US-guided RSB and TAPB by one-puncture technique. and multipont in people with Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, run by Zagazig 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 6 inclusion and 5 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The total postoperative opioid consumption in the first 24 hours. (time frame: 24 hours postoperative). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Sep 2024.
