Consecutive patients undergoing open or robotic\u2010assisted radical prostatectomy were randomized to spinal anaesthesia (SSS, bupivacaine 0.5%\u2009+\u2009fentanyl), bilateral transversus abdominis plane block (TAP, ropivacaine 0.375%\u2009+\u2009clonidine) or systemic administration of lidocaine (SA, lidocaine 1%) in addition to general anaesthesia. Primary outcome was quality of recovery 15 (QoR\u201015) score on postoperative day one compared to baseline.
