Brief Summary: Patients undergoing craniotomy surgery often experience severe postoperative pain This pain can affect the patients hemodynamics disrupt sleep patterns and prolong hospital stays Sudden increases in heart rate and blood pressure due to pain may lead to elevated intracranial pressure in patients potentially causing morbidity and mortality Opioids are commonly used to mitigate hemodynamic fluctuations and reduce postoperative pain however they may delay recovery contribute to excessive sedation and affect postoperative neurological examinations Additionally opioids have adverse effects such as nausea vomiting and respiratory depression Alleviating hemodynamic instability and postoperative pain are critical concerns for neuro anesthesiologists Regional analgesia techniques are employed in neurosurgery patients because they minimize anesthesia requirements alleviate pain and allow for neurological assessment with a lower incidence of systemic complicationsThe scalp block was developed due to its potential benefits as an effective regional anesthesia technique that supports the advancement of delicate brain surgeries such as functional and microsurgeries
Detailed Description: In this study we hypothesize that patients who receive a SCALP block will have lower postoperative Numerical Rating Scale scores and consume less total analgesia

Our primary objective is to evaluate postoperative numerical rating scale scores in patients undergoing craniotomy surgery with a SCALP block

Our secondary objectives are to assess the total amount of rescue analgesia consumed the time to first rescue analgesia patient satisfaction and any possible complications The study was planned as a prospective randomized controlled double blind At each clinic an anesthesiologist randomly allocated patients to two significant groups using numbered opaque sealed envelopes Group S patients receiving SCALP block and Group C patients getting just multimodal analgesia The anesthesiologists responsible for the randomization process were not involved in any other sections of the trial and the individuals executing the SCALP blocks procedure were not engaged in other areas of the research Additionally the researcher who intervened the participants and the analyzer were blinded to the details of the study After the surgery two different anesthesia technicians recorded the primary and secondary results of the study
