Participant Flow
52 patients completed the study, having hernia repair as a day-surgery procedure.
We screened 120 subjects and excluded 66, 35 patients did not fit the criteria and 31 patients declined to participate. 54 subjects were randomized to receive either a rectus sheath block or local anesthetic infiltration. Two randomized subjects did not get the intervention. 52 subjects did get the intervention - 26 in each arm.
