M-Tapa Block for Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair Surgery

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Clinical Trial Description

Modified Perichondral Approach Thoracoabdominal Nerve (M-TAPA) block is a novel block that provides effective analgesia of the anterior and lateral thoracoabdominal walls during laparoscopic surgery, in which local anesthetic is applied only to the lower side of the perichondral surface. M-TAPA block is a good alternative for analgesia of the upper dermatome levels and the abdominal lateral wall, and may be an opioid-sparing strategy with satisfactory quality improvement in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. M-TAPA block provides analgesia at the level of T5-T11 in the abdominal region. Sonoanatomy is easy to visualize and the spread of local anesthetic can be easily seen. Analgesia occurs in several dermatomes thanks to the cephalocaudal spread of the local anesthetic solution. There are studies in the literature investigating the effectiveness of M-TAPA block for post-operative pain management in several abdominal surgeries. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of M-TAPA block for postoperative analgesia management after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair surgery. Our primary aim is to compare the postoperative pain scores (NRS), and our secondary aim is to compare the postoperative rescue analgesic use and postoperative opioid consumption, and the side effects (allergic reaction, nausea, vomiting) associated with opioid use. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
