Abstract
Background: Multimodal pain management protocols demonstrate decreased opioid consumption after bariatric surgery. However, limited data exists regarding the efficacy of transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks as an adjunctive analgesic method. The present study aimed to demonstrate the efficacy of a surgeon-performed TAP block when compared to local infiltration of bupivacaine in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.
