Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study is being done to compare 2 types of pain control methods and determine which is more effective postoperatively for laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Group 1 will receive an intrathecal (IT) injection in the back in which a small dose duramorph and bupivacaine will be placed into the spinal fluid.
