What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate the effect of two different pain relief techniques on the quality of recovery after elective abdominal hysterectomy, a common surgery to remove the uterus. The study focuses on how patients feel in the early stages after surgery, using tools like the Quality of Recovery-15 questionnaire to assess pain, comfort, independence, psychological support, and emotional state. Researchers are interested in improving recovery and managing postoperative pain effectively while reducing side effects from opioids. Participants will receive one of two pain relief methods before surgery: intrathecal morphine injected into the spine or the Erector Spinae Plane Block, which involves injecting anesthetic near the spine using ultrasound guidance. Both approaches are combined with general anesthesia to provide balanced pain control during and after surgery. The study uses a randomized design to compare these two active techniques. During the study, participants will be monitored closely for 24 hours after surgery. Researchers will assess recovery quality using the QoR-15 questionnaire and track pain levels at rest and with movement. They will also measure total opioid use, time until first additional pain medication is needed, and any adverse events. The study will start in May 2025 and continue through June 2026, covering all assessments within the first day after surgery.
