What this study is about

The investigator aims to compare the analgesic efficacy of Transversus Abdominis Plan Block and Rectus Sheath Block which are used to prevent intraoperative and postoperative pain and reduce the use of opioid in abdominoplasty operations.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

Treatments and study arms

transversus abdominis plane block

Procedure

The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a regional anesthesia technique used primarily to provide pain relief for patients undergoing surgery in the abdominal region. The TAP block targets the nerves that supply sensations to the skin and muscles of the abdominal wall.

rectus sheat block

Procedure

The rectus sheath block is a type of regional anesthesia used primarily for pain management in the abdominal area. It involves injecting local anesthetic into the rectus sheath, which is the fibrous sheath that envelops the rectus abdominis muscle. This block targets the lower intercostal nerves as they traverse through the sheath, thereby providing analgesia to the anterior abdominal wall.

Primary outcomes

Visual Analog ScaleVAS scores were measured at the beginning, st, 3rd, 6th, 12th and 24th hour in the postoperative recovery unit.

The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score is a subjective measurement tool used to assess the intensity of pain. It is commonly used in clinical settings to help patients communicate their pain levels to healthcare providers. The VAS typically consists of a straight line, often 10 centimeters long, with one end labeled "no pain" (0) and the other end labeled "worst pain imaginable" (10). Patients mark a point on the line that corresponds to their current level of pain.
