Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Pain after cesarean section is usually described as moderate to severe by most patients and failure to adequately treat may affect mother-baby bonding, care of baby, and breastfeeding. Currently, a multimodal analgesic technique involving abdominal nerve block with parenteral analgesics is becoming popular for these patients. Transverse abdominis plane (TAP) block is a recently introduced regional technique that blocks abdominal wall neural afferents between T6 and L1 and thus can relieve pain associated with an abdominal incision. The aim of the work is to compare the efficacy of classical TAP block versus classical TAP block and ilioinguinal nerve block using the same dose of bupivacaine on postoperative pain score, opioid consumption, and patient satisfaction in elective cesarean section. |
