About

There have been some studies to compared trans abdominis plane(TAP) block with wound infiltration of local anesthetics in multiport laparoscopic surgery, but there have been no studies in single incision laparoscopic gastrectomy.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of ultrasonography-guided transverse nerve block and localized anesthesia infiltration in patients with single incision laparoscopic gastrectomy.

Full description

Patients were randomly divided into group N(ultrasonography-guided TAP) block and group W( before surgery local anesthetic infiltration at the incision site). We compared the opioid usage, postoperative 6, 24, and 48 hours pain, presence of vomiting, and duration of hospitalization during the operation.
