Efficacy of the Transversus Abdominus Plane (TAP) Block for Post-Cesarean Delivery Analgesia
Completed
Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Mount Sinai Hospital
N/A
2007-12-01
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients having the transversus abdominal place
(TAP) block at the end of a cesarean delivery have less pain in the post-delivery period than
those who do not. Freezing medication is injected between the layers of muscle on either side
of the belly, to freeze the nerves that carry pain stimuli from an abdominal wound. This
technique has been useful for many abdominal operations, and has recently been studied in
cesarean sections, however more information is needed.
