Laparoscopic Versus US-Guided Subcostal TAP Block After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
- Conditions
- Cholecystitis; Gallstone
- Interventions
- Procedure: US TAPProcedure: Laparoscopic TAP
- Registration Number
- NCT04276285
- Lead Sponsor
- Mansoura University
- Brief Summary
Zaghiyan et al hypothesized that Laparoscopic TAP was noninferior to US-TAP and performed a randomized clinical trial comparing Laparoscopic TAP, US-TAP, and no TAP in minimally invasive colorectal surgery. The authors reported that LTAP was superior to UTAP in achieving pain control and minimizing opioid use in the first 24 hours after colorectal surgery.
This prospective randomized, controlled trial will be performed to assessed the efficacy of laparoscopic subcostal TAP block (LSTAP) compared to ultrasound-guided subcostal TAP (USTAP) block after laparoscopic cholecystectomy regarding postoperative pain scores in the first 24-hours after the intervention and analgesic requirements.
