Intrathecal morphine vs. Ultrasound-guided bilateral posterior quadratus lumborum block in caesarean delivery.

Background: Effective postoperative pain management is crucial in caesarean delivery (CD) to enhance recovery, minimize opioid use, and improve maternal outcomes. Intrathecal morphine (ITM) is widely used but can cause side effects, such as pruritus and nausea. Posterior quadratus lumborum block (QLB) has emerged as a potential alternative for postoperative analgesia.
