Brief Summary: This study will investigate the hypothesis that preoperative erector spinae plane (ESP) block will reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing elective lumbar disc herniation (LDH) surgery. PONV was defined as the presence of nausea and vomiting within 24 hours postoperatively.
Detailed Description: The study will include patients aged 18 years and older, with (American Society of Anesthesiologists) ASA physical status I and II, and scheduled for single-level lumbar disc herniation surgery under general anesthesia. Patient characteristics (age, gender, body mass index, etc.), Apfel score, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) status, intraoperative opioid use requirement, surgical duration, postoperative pain status, rescue analgesic and emetic requirement will be recorded. The primary outcome parameter will be the PONV incidence within the postoperative 24 hours. PONV severity during this period will be assessed using a Likert scale from 0 to 10. PONV will be defined as vomiting, marked nausea (numerical rating scale \[NRS\] ≥4), and/or need for rescue medication. Patients will be assessed for PONV at 0, 2, 4, 12, and 24 hours using the Likert scale. Nausea and its severity, vomiting attacks, need for intraoperative opioid use, pain and its severity, need for additional analgesics, and administration of antiemetic rescue medication will be evaluated as secondary outcome parameters.
