Two Approaches of Transversus Abdominis Block (TAP ) in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
the investigators will compare the effect of pre-operative oblique subcostal TAP and lateral TAP blocks on the total perioperative opioids consumption for patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Detailed Description
General anesthesia induction will be achieved using a sleeping dose of fentanyl 1µg/kg intravascular(IV), propofol 2mg/kg (IV), and atracurium 0.5mg/kg (IV) to facilitate tracheal intubation. General anesthesia will be maintained with lungs ventilation by pressure controlled mode with isoflurane
During anesthesia maintenance Intraoperatively, if blood pressure BP or heart rate (HR) increase more than 20% from baseline, intravenous morphine (3- 5mg) will be given to stabilize the patients' haemodynamics. Fifteen minutes before the end of surgery all patients will receive 1g intravenous paracetamol and 4 grams ondansetron.
Patients will be randomly divided into three equal groups:
Group A: will receive bilateral oblique subcostal TAP block Group B: will receive bilateral lateral TAP block. Group C :will receive postoperative morphine by patient-controlled analgesia (PCA).
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Group A subcostal TAP block |
Procedure: Group A
After induction of general anesthesia, oblique subcostal TAP blocks will be done(14) under the guidance of Sonosite ,superficial probe ,14-15 MHz ultrasound transducer
|
Experimental: Group B lateral TAP block. |
Procedure: Group B
After induction of general anesthesia, bilateral lateral TAP block will be performed (15) under ultrasonographic guidance with transportable ultrasound device ( Sonosite ,superficial probe ,14-15 MHz)
|
Other: GroupC will receive postoperative morphine by patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). |
Other: Group C
the analgesia will be maintained using a morphine patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) device set to give 1.5 mg bolus administration of morphine without a basic rate and 15 min lock-out time. The total amount of morphine administration will be recorded for the subsequent 24 h
