Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

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.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: transversus abdominis plain block group

post-cesarean section tap block will be given by ultrasound guidance using 20 ml bupivacaine local anesthetic 0.25% concentration for each side as an adjuvant to spinal anesthesia

Procedure: Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Block
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

Experimental: intrathecal morphia group

intrathecal 150 microgram morphine in a 0.5 ml volume as an adjuvant to spinal anesthesia

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