Summary

This study looked at 60 adults having single-level lower back surgery to compare two pain relief methods: a newer ultrasound-guided nerve block (QIPB) and the standard wound injection. The goal was to see which approach better reduces pain and the need for opioid painkillers in the first 24 hours after surgery. Researchers measured pain scores, opioid use, nausea, and patient satisfaction.
