Objective: To investigate the impact of ultrasound-guided regional analgaesia techniques on postoperative recovery and compare them with those of intratecal morphine (ITM) in obstetric patients undergoing elective caesarean delivery (CD).
Study Design: Observational study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Anaesthesiology and Reanimation, Konya City Hospital, Konya, Turkiye, from January to December 2022.
Background: Shoulder arthroscopy, a standard orthopedic procedure, often results in severe postoperative pain, leading to high opioid consumption and delayed recovery. Various analgesic methods, including peripheral nerve blocks, manage this pain. The pericapsular nerve group block is a relatively new technique whose efficacy in shoulder surgeries has yet to be extensively studied.

A novel regional anaesthesia technique, the sacral erector spinae plane block, has the potential to enhance the quality of postoperative recovery significantly.
Methods: This prospective, randomized, controlled multicenter study investigated the effects of the sacral erector spinae plane block on recovery quality in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.

Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been shown to have beneficial postoperative analgesic effects when used as a part of multimodal analgesia. The aim of this study was to determine whether ESPB improves postoperative recovery quality in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
