What this trial studies

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two different analgesic techniques, the Transversalis Fascia Plane Block and the Quadratus Lumborum Block, in providing pain relief after elective laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgeries. Patients undergoing the surgery will receive one of the two interventions, and their postoperative pain levels will be assessed at various intervals. The primary focus is on the time until the first need for additional pain relief, along with total analgesic consumption and side effects experienced in the first 24 hours post-surgery.
