About this study

Official title: Comparative Study Between Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Block and Spinal Morphine for Pain Relief After Elective Caesarean Section

This interventional double-blind randomized controlled study was carried out on 60 cases underwent elective caesarean section delivery, they were divided into 2 groups; patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups; Group M: received intrathecal 150 microgram morphine in a 0.5 ml volume, mixed with 10 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5 % in a 2 ml volume (total volume 2.5 ml). Group B: received intrathecal 10 mg hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% 2ml volume + 0.5 saline (Total volume 3ml) and at the end of surgery patient received bilateral TAP block with 20 ml volume of 0.25% bupivacaine on each side.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane BlockProcedure or surgery

    patient in the supine position, ultrasound will be used to identify the plane between the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscle to inject 20 ml of local anesthetic for each side

  • MorphineDrug

    intrathecal 150 microgram morphine in a 0.5 ml volume will be added to bupivacaine as an adjuvant to spinal anesthesia
