研究概览
简要总结
Laparoscopic gastric-bypass surgery (LGBS) is one of the surgical treatments for morbid obesity, which is performed under general anesthesia. TAP block is an analgesic strategy covering the dermatomes from T6 to L1 and consists of injecting local anesthetic in the TAP between the costal margin and the iliac crest, where the thoracolumbar nerves (T6-L1) are located. As far as the investigators know, this analgesic technique has never been studied in LGBS. The investigators objective is to determine whether an ultrasound (US)-guided TAP block provides improved analgesia during the first 24 hours after laparoscopic gastric-bypass surgery, compared to conventional therapy only.

结局指标
主要结局
Opioid consumption over the first 24 hours following LGBS.
时间窗: 24 hrs
Opioid consumption will be expressed in terms of milligrams doses of PO morphine. If other opioids are used, doses will be converted to the equivalent PO morphine dose using standard opioid dosage conversion tables.
次要结局
- Duration of block(48 hours)
- Pain scores(48 hours)
- Block procedure time(30 minutes)
- Opioid consumption at 48 hours(48 Hours)
- incidence of itching, and number of antipruritic medication administrations(48 hours)
- TAP block complications(48 hours)
- incidence of nausea and vomiting, and number of antiemetic medication administrations(during hospital stay average of 2 - 3 days)
