Summary
This study looked at whether a special nerve block (sacral erector spinae plane block) can reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after transurethral prostate resection surgery. Sixty adults having this surgery under general anesthesia received either the nerve block or standard care. Researchers measured pain scores and opioid use for 24 hours after surgery to see if the block helps patients feel better and use fewer drugs.
