Efficacy of Analgesic Methods for Pain Control After Lower Abdominal Surgery With Midline Incision
Efficacy of Analgesic Methods for Pain Control After Lower Abdominal Surgery With Midline Incision
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of intrathecal morphine and rectus sheath block compared with standard postoperative analgesia for pain management in patients undergoing lower abdominal surgery with a midline incision. Effective postoperative analgesia is essential to enhance recovery, reduce opioid consumption, and improve overall patient comfort.
In this prospective randomized controlled trial, eligible patients scheduled for lower abdominal surgery through a midline incision will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: intrathecal morphine, rectus sheath block, or control (standard postoperative analgesia without regional intervention). Postoperative outcomes will include pain scores, quality of recovery (QoR) scores, functional recovery parameters, patient satisfaction, incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and rescue analgesic requirements.
The findings of this study may provide evidence on the comparative effectiveness of these analgesic strategies and contribute to the development of optimized multimodal pain management protocols in lower abdominal surgery.
