Sponsor's own description

Cesarean section is the most common inpatient surgical procedure in the United States with 1.3 million cesarean deliveries performed in 2015. Cesarean section frequency is increasing rapidly in worldwide, especially in middle and high income countries. Postoperative pain is an expected outcome for patients following surgical procedures. Inadequate pain relief is still a common problem among hospitalized patients. Cesarean section ranked ninth for pain severity among 179 different surgical procedures. Multimodal pain therapy has been suggested for postoperative pain management after cesarean delivery. The most commonly used modalities are systemic administration of opioids, either by intramuscular injection or IV by patient-controlled analgesia, and neuraxial injection of opioid as part of a regional anesthetic for cesarean delivery. These techniques have specific advantages and disadvantages. Superior hypogastric plexus blockade (SHB) has been shown an effective method for pain relıef after gynecologic procedures, it has been shown that SHP can be easily performed intraoperatively during hysterectomy procedure In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of SHB performed intraoperatively for postoperative pain relief after cesarean section. To our knowledge, this is the first study to use SHB intraoperatively for pain relief after cesarean section in the literature.
