ESP Block VS TAP in Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Completed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Hysterectomy

In brief

The purpose of this study is to compare the difference between two different pain control methods in patients who will be having a hysterectomy surgery. By collecting this data, we aim to show improved postoperative pain scores, decreased opioid needs, and decreased opioid side effects (nausea, sedation, ileus, urinary retention, respiratory depression).
