Summary
This study looked at whether a specific nerve block (recto-intercostal fascial plane block) can reduce pain after epigastric hernia repair. Forty adults having elective surgery received either the block or standard care. The goal was to see if the block delayed the need for extra pain medicine and lowered total morphine use in the first 24 hours.
