External Oblique Intercostal Plane Block for Liver Transplantation Recipient

Postoperative pain management is one of the key factors in improving rehabilitation and accelerating recovery. The external oblique intercostal plane block can be used to provide abdominal wall analgesia for effective pain control in abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of the external oblique intercostal plane block in liver transplant recipients. The investigators will compare a group receiving the external oblique intercostal plane block with a control group to determine whether this block provides effective postoperative analgesia in liver transplant recipients.
