Official title
Postoperative Pain After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in Patients Receiving Bilateral Ultrasound-guided Transverse Abdominis Plane Block Compared With Local Anesthetic Infiltration of Trochar Insertion Sites With Ropivacaine 0.5%
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose if to find out if analgesia with bilateral ultrasound-guided Tranversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block with Ropivacaine 0.5% is better than analgesia with local infiltration of trochar sites with Ropivacaine 0.5% in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Our hypothesis is that in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, bilateral TAP blocks will reduce postoperative pain scores when compared to conventional postoperative pain control with local infiltration of trochar insertion sites.
