Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Neonates with abdominal surgery and quadratus lumborum block
0-6 months children with abdominal surgery. After standard induction of general anesthesia, patients will receive 0.5 ml/kg of ropivacaine (2 mg/ml) in a quadratus lumborum block. Ultrasonography will be used to guide the injection. In the postoperative period, pain scores and analgesics consumption will be recorded until the 48th hour post surgery.
Procedure: General anesthesia
Standard general anesthesia
Procedure: Quadratus lumborum block
Guided by ultrasonography, injection of 0.5 ml/kg of ropivacaine (2 mg/ml) between the quadratus lumborum muscle and the internal oblique muscle, before skin incision
