Echo-guided Scalp Blocks and Incidence of Postoperative Pain in Scheduled Supratentorial Intracranial Surgery.

Up to 30% of patients undergoing intracranial surgery present moderate to severe pain. In this type of surgery, the restriction of the pharmacopoeia, which goes against the concept of multimodal analgesia, results in the important use of opioids not without consequences in terms of complications. Numerous studies have highlighted the benefits of scalp blocks in postoperative pain. The originality of this study lies firstly in the fact that the scalp blocks will be guided by ultrasound and secondly, the incidence of severe pain after scalp blocks will be evaluated
