Clinical study of ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block for analgesia after cesarean section

Efficacy of Ultrasound-guided Transversus Abdominis Plane (tap) Block for Post- Cesarean Section Delivery Analgesia

Background: Ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block has been used for intra-operative and postoperative analgesia. Here we evaluate the efficacy of TAP block for postoperative cesarean delivery analgesia. Method: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed at King Khalid University Hospital on 40 patients undergoing cesarean delivery under spinal anesthe...

Efficacy of Adding Magnesium Sulfate to Ropivacaine in Ultrasound-guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Block on Analgesia After Open Appendectomy

Introduction: Proper management of postoperative pain relieves the patient’s discomfort, reduces the length of hospitalization, reduces hospital costs, and increases patient satisfaction. This study was aimed to determine the efficacy of adding magnesium sulfate to ropivacaine 0.25% in transverse abdominis plane (TAP) block under ultrasound guidance on analgesia after open appendectomy. Method...

Efficacy of Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) Block as Part of Multimodal Analgesia after Cesarean Section Delivery

Cesarean section (CS) is the Universal surgical procedure which accounts 15 % of birth world wide and 21.1 % in the developed countries [1]. Similarly, it is the common practice in our hospital, Ethiopia. The pain after surgery is experienced by means of patients below umbilicus surgery which derives from the abdominal wall incision [2]. Transversus abdominis plan (TAP) block is the thriving re...
