Preemptive analgesia is an intervention provided prior to initiating painful stimuli which may reduce or prevent subsequent pain. Different analgesic modalities have been tried to provide adequate analgesia including systemic drugs (opioids), local anesthetic (lidocaine), and neuraxial techniques (epidural). Regional block techniques (Transversus Abdominis Plane block and Quadratus Lumborum block) are abdominal blocks used for perioperative pain management of both upper and lower abdominal surgeries. They are also having an evolving role in postoperative analgesia and opioids consumption, with minimal procedure related morbidity.
