Impact of Bilateral Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum Block Using Different Doses of Dexmedetomidine as an Adjuvant Combined with Ropivacaine for Postoperative Analgesia in Laparoscopic Myomectomy
Abstract:Introduction: The optimal dosage of dexmedetomidine (DEX) as an adjuvant combined with ropivacaine for postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic myomectomy is still controversial. The main aim of this prospective clinical trial was to evaluate the analgesic effect and relevant adverse effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine applied locally for ropivacaine-induced bilateral transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (TQLB).
Methods: TQLB was conducted using different doses of dexmedetomidine per side (R group:… Show more
