Aim To investigate the efficacy of intraoperative superior
hypogastric plexus (SHP) block for postoperative pain relief
in patients undergoing a cesarean section.
Methods One hundred and fifteen pregnant women
scheduled for an elective cesarean under general anesthesia were randomly divided into an SHP block (n=65) and
a control group (n=50). SHP block was administered with
bupivacaine injection. The controls received saline injection in the SHP area. Postoperative pain was assessed by
the 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS). The presence of side
effects and complications, including opioid or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) requirement, gastrointestinal function, nausea, and vomiting were evaluated.
Results The SHP block group had significantly lower VAS
scores 2, 6, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively (P<0.001) and
required a significantly lower rescue dose of NSAID or opioids (P=0.003, P<0.05, respectively).
Conclusions SHP block may be an effective and safe pain
relief treatment after a cesarean section.
