Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide. These patients usually undergo open surgical resection of cancer under general anaesthesia. The aim of this study is to detect whether the Erector spinae plan block or Quadratus lumborum block will provide the most ideal analgesia for these patients. Erector spinae plan block is a novel analgesic technique that provides both visceral and somatic analgesia due to its communication with the paravertebral space. Quadratus lumborum block is a truncal nerve block usually used for intra-abdominal surgeries. Ultrasound guidance increases the accuracy and safety of both techniques. A local anaesthetic mixture of Bupivacaine 0.25% and dexamethasone will be used for both techniques.
