Analgesic efficacy of multiple regional nerve block techniques in laparoscopic hepatectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Key Points

• Regional nerve block techniques show improved analgesic efficacy compared to standard methods, enhancing patient comfort.
• The meta-analysis reports a significant reduction in postoperative pain scores with specific regional techniques employed.
• Systematic review encompasses multiple studies assessing the impact of regional nerve blocks on analgesia in laparoscopic surgeries.
• Implications indicate that employing these techniques may lead to better pain management and recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy.
