Role of TAP and RS Block in Reduction of Postoperative Pain for Gynecological Surgical Laparoscopic Procedures

Campus Bio-Medico University70 enrolled

Overview

The present study aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of loco-regional wall anesthesia of the transversus abdominis plane block (TAP block) and the rectus sheath block (RS block), compared to intravenous analgesia, in terms of pain reduction, postoperative analgesic drugs consumption, patient satisfaction and decrease of LOS (length of stay), in patients undergoing benign gynecological laparoscopic surgical procedures.
