Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Adequate pain control, rehabilitation and early postoperative recovery are currently the model to follow according to the recommended guidelines.In this project the main objective is to evaluate 2 different analgesic strategies both intraoperatively and postoperatively, one based on 1. Epidural analgesia and the other 2. Echoguided serratus intercostal block prior to surgical intervention in eventration or abdominal wall repair interventions.

We conducted an observational study with a low level of intervention. Epidural analgesia prior to general anesthesia and serratus-intercostal block prior to general anesthesia) following the criteria applied in each case according to the operating room anesthesiologist until reaching the sample size and fulfilling the criteria of: abdominal eventration repair, over 18 years of age, ASA I-III. Signature of the IC.

Epidural analgesia and the other 2. Echoguided serratus intercostal block prior to surgical intervention in eventration or abdominal wall repair interventions.

The investigators conducted an observational study with a low level of intervention. Epidural analgesia prior to general anesthesia and serratus-intercostal block prior to general anesthesia) following the criteria applied in each case according to the operating room anesthesiologist until reaching the sample size and fulfilling the criteria of: abdominal eventration repair, over 18 years of age, ASA I-III. Signature of the IC.

We will assess the analgesia provided by both techniques and to compare the results.
