NCT03180099: Efficiency of Thoracolumbar Interfascial Plane Block in Lumbar Disk Surgery

Summary

Objectives:Lomber disc hernia is one of the most common diseases in Turkey. The prevalence in various studies is between 60-80% and incidence is between 1-3% for the entire population,Goal of TLIP is to provide a same impact in the thoracolumbar region, like thoracoabdominal plane block (TAP) diminish the pain in the abdominal surgery Methods: The study design was approved by the locale ethics committee. This double-blinded, randomized, controlled clinical trial recruited 50 patients who were candidated for surgical operations on lumbar disc hernia surgery. . Patients will be divided into two groups as Group T (TLIP block) and Group E (Epidural group).In group T, TLIP block will be applied before anesthesia and surgery and evaluate block efficiency with temperature discrimination and pin-prick test. During the TLIP block, block fluid will have total volume of 20 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine.). In Group E, after surgery, total of 20 ml of 0.1% bupivacaine and 50 mcg of fentanyl will be performed in the epidural space with direct vision by the surgeon.For the postoperative analgesia, patient controlled analgesia device will be administered as 20 mg/h continue dose tramadol and administered 10 mg bolus dose tramadol if patient need a rescue dose. Nausea-vomiting, tramadol consumption, bolus dose intervention and visual analog scale value in the postoperative 0-4., 4-12., and 12-24. hour interval will be assess and results will be record.
