Summary

This study tests two different ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (weight loss surgery). About 90 adults aged 18-65 with a BMI over 40 will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two blocks. The main goal is to reduce the amount of morphine needed in the first 24 hours after surgery, with a focus on improving patient comfort and recovery.
