Objective: We aimed to investigate the effect of bilateral sphenopalatine ganglion blockade (SPGB) on the main postoperative complications in septorhinoplasty operations. Methods: In this randomized, controlled, prospective study, 80 cases planned for Septorhinoplasty operations under general anesthesia were included in the study. The cases were divided into two groups; SPGB was performed with 2 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine bilaterally 15 min before the end of the operation in the SPGB group (Group S, n = 40). In the control group (Group C, n = 40), 2 mL of 0.9% NaCl solution was applied into both SPG areas. In the recovery unit after the operation; the pain and analgesic needs of the patients at 0, 2, 6 and 24 h were evaluated. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of hemodynamic parameters (ASA, MBP, HR) (p > 0.05) All VAS values were statistically lower in Group S than in Group C (p |
