Table 3: Intraoperative and postoperative fentanyl consumption, length of stay in PACU, and time of first request to rescue analgesia in both groups.

QLB (n = 48) TAP (n = 50) P value
Intraoperative fentanyl consumption (μg) 40 ± 7.07 42 ± 10.36 0.802
Cumulative postoperative fentanyl consumption (24 h) (μg) 58.82 ± 11.11 62.14 ± 17.50 0.527
Time of first request to rescue analgesia (minutes) 420.58 ± 114.76 267.32 ± 62.32 0.000

Data are expressed as mean ± SD, median (range). P-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. QLB: Quadratus lumborum block group, TAP: Transversus abdominis plane block group.
