Summary
This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the analgesic efficacy of the Transversalis Fascia Plane Block (TFPB) and the Modified Thoracoabdominal Nerve Block through Perichondrial Approach (M-TAPA) in patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. The primary outcome is the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score within the first 24 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes include total opioid consumption, requirement for rescue analgesia, block-related complications and adverse effects (hematoma, local anesthetic systemic complications, vascular puncture, and infection), patient satisfaction assessed using a Likert scale, quality of recovery assessed using the QoR-15 questionnaire, and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting.
