Determining Morphine Requirement Post Cesarean Section with and without TAP Block- A Retrospective Chart review - Abstract
The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is an effective method of providing postoperative analgesia for patients undergoing midline abdominal wall incisions. We evaluated retrospectively, the analgesic efficacy of an ultrasound guided TAP block for post CS analgesia to determine if it would reduce patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) morphine consumption in the first 24 h after surgery.
