Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Sleeve gastrectomy is the most performed bariatric procedure worldwide. Postoperative pain management is a challenging issue. In this trial, the investigators aimed to explore the effects of laparoscopic guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block on postoperative pain management in patient those were performed laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

TAP block is a regional anesthesia technique which could be performed easily especially by laparoscopy and are used in various surgical procedures. In that technique, blockade of the plane between internal oblique muscle and transversus abdominis muscle is performed by infiltration of local anesthesics drugs. Therefore , reduction of postoperative pain could be lead to decrease in postoperative complications.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Forty patients had divided into two groups; TAP block group (TAP-B) and placebo (P) group. Every group contained 20 patients and randomization was performed by sealed envelope method. Patient and the data collector resident didn't know the which procedure was done thus single-blinded randomization were provided.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

TAP Block

In this group ,TAP block will be performed with 0.5% 15 ml bupivacaine + 5 ml .

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Transversus abdominis plane block

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

TAP block will be performed by a needle which is punctured at the midaxillary line between subcostal margin and iliac crest, once tip of the needle had detected just above the peritoneum the syringe pulled back.

Placebo

In this group , 20 ml saline solution will injected into the transversus abdominis plane.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

20 ml saline solution will be injected by a needle which is punctured at the midaxillary line between subcostal margin and iliac crest, once tip of the needle had detected just above the peritoneum the syringe pulled back.
