Brief summary (registry, in English)

Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is an anesthesia method that provides somatic analgesia to the anterior and lateral abdominal walls. Thus, TAP block is widely implemented in perioperative management of colorectal cancer patients. Researchers aimed to evaluate the analgesic effectiveness and duration of effect of dexmedetomidine added to bupivacaine in the TAP block applied in colorectal cancer surgeries.
