Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure for cholecystectomy. In present time local anesthesia is widely used as analgesic by various routes including port site intraincisional inlteration, transverse abdominis plane (TAP) block and intraperitoneal instillation. Aim: Comparing The Post-Operative Analgesia Using Ropivacaine in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy by three Different Methods ; Intraperitoneal instillation, USG-guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane block and Incisional inltration at port site. Materials and methods: This study was conducted among elective general surgical patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in S.N. Medical College, Agra and completed in the study period of 18 months. Study population was elective surgical patients posted for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Patients were divided in to 3 groups: Group A- Intraperitoneal instillation, Groups B- ultrasound guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane block and Groups C- intraincisional inlteration at port site. Results: Intraincisional inltration of ropivacaine provide signicant Postoperative pain relief in comparative to USG -guided subcostal TAP block and intraperitoneal instillation with ropivacaine. Conclusion: Intraincisional inltration of ropivacaine provide signicant Postoperative pain relief and decrease post operative analgesia requirement in comparative to USG -guided subcostal TAP block and intraperitoneal instillation with ropivacaine. Shoulder tip pain incidence, postoperative nausea and vomiting incidence lower in intraincisional inltration of ropivacaine.

Introduction: Pain experienced following laparoscopic cholecystectomy derives significantly from incision made in anterior abdominal wall. Many patients experience moderate to severe pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of ultrasound guided bilateral subcostal transversus abdominal plane (TAP) block with port-site infiltration for post-operative analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: Sixty patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly allocated to two groups to receive port-site infiltration of local anaesthesia or ultrasound guided subcostal TAP block at the end of surgery before extubation. All patients received 1 gm paracetamol intravenously 8 hourly. Post-operative pain was assessed using visual analogue score at 0,1,2,4,8,16 and 24 hours. Time to first analgesic requirement and total opioid consumption over 24 hours were recorded. Results: Ultrasound guided bilateral subcostal transversus abdominis plane block significantly reduced post-operative pain score compared to port site infiltration. We observed statistically significant differences in visual analogue score between two groups at all other time frame. The 24 hours opioid consumption was less in Subcostal TAP (136±66.31μg VS 202±80.58μg, p=0.001). Time for rescue analgesia was prolonged in patient receiving subcostal TAP (3.63±2.09 hrs VS 1.73±1.60 hrs, p=0.0002). Conclusion: Ultrasound guided bilateral subcostal transversus abdominal block provides superior post-operative analgesia and reduced opioid consumption after laparoscopic cholecystectomy compared to port-site infiltration.

Abstract Background: Abdominoplasty is a common aesthetic surgery. Adequate pain management during the postoperative period is of great importance. This research aims to investigate the outcome of the abdominoplasty operation for the patients who have received transversus abdominis plan block in comparison with the non-blocked patients.Methods: 58 patients, undergoing elective abdominoplasty, patients were randomly assigned to two equal groups of 29 patients each. Combined subcostal and posterior transversus abdominis plane block group and non-blocked group. For both groups, the standard postoperative analgesic regimen consisted of IV Paracetamol 1 g every 6 hours. Values of visual analog scale (VAS) were recorded postoperatively, once the patient had a VAS ≥ 4, IV opioids administered. The primary outcome was opioids consumption in the first 72 hours postoperatively, the secondary outcome was the value of VAS at rest and movement (or with knee flexion) in the first 72 hours postoperatively, time to first ambulation and time to first incentive spirometer 900 ml/min were recorded.Results: Pethidine consumption in the first 72 hours was 208.62±85.64 in the non-blocked group and 20.69±25.06 in the blocked group (p < 0.05). VAS was lower in the blocked group during the first 72 hours either during rest or movement where (p < 0.05). Time to first ambulation was 12.41±5.04 hours in the non-blocked group and 4.62±1.08 hours in the blocked group (p < 0.05), time to first incentive spirometer 900 ml/min was 11.45±5.05 hours in the non-blocked group and 4.27±1.09 hours in the blocked group (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Combined subcostal and posterior transversus abdominis plane block is a promising regional anesthetic technique for postoperative pain relief in abdominoplasty surgery, it offers a longer postoperative analgesic effect duration and fewer analgesic requirements with less postoperative complications.Trial Registration Clinical Trial: TCTR20200602001 “Retrospectively registered” Date of registration on May 30, 2020
