简要总结
Research study to determine if putting local anesthetic through one or two tiny tubes next to the nerves that go to the area the patients are having surgery on (abdomen or pelvis), will improve pain control following surgery. This study will also help determine if patients require fewer pain pills, experience fewer sleep disturbances, and are more satisfied with their postoperative pain control.
详细描述
Specific Aim: To determine if adding a continuous Transversus Abdominis Plane nerve block to a single-injection nerve block results in improved postoperative pain control.
Hypothesis 1: Adding a continuous Transversus Abdominis Plane nerve block to a single-injection nerve block results in lower average pain scores during movement the day following surgery.
Specific Aim2: To determine if adding a continuous Transversus Abdominis Plane nerve block to a single-injection nerve block results in decreased average pain scores, opioid use, sleep disturbances, and improved patient satisfaction.
Hypothesis 2: Adding a continuous Transversus Abdominis Plane nerve block to a single-injection nerve block results in decreased average pain scores, oral opioid consumption, sleep disturbances, and improved patient satisfaction the day following surgery.

结局指标
主要结局
The primary outcome measurement will be the average pain with movement on postoperative day 1 as measured by 0-10 scale, where 0=no pain and 10=worst imaginable pain.
时间窗: 1 day
次要结局
- Pain with movement on second day following surgery, as measured by 0-10 scale (where 0=no pain and 10=worst imaginable pain).(2 days)
- Total opioid consumption per day following surgery as measured by the number of opioid pills consumed per day.(Day 1 and 2 following surgery)
- Sleep disturbances, measured on days 1 and 2 following surgery, as asked by research staff during follow-up phone calls.(Days 1 and 2 following surgery)
- Patient satisfaction of pain control as measured on a 0-10 scale where 0=very unsatisfied and 10=very satisfied with pain control(Day 2 following surgery)
