Summary
This study looks at 150 adults having elective abdominal or bariatric surgery to see if giving a TAP block (a numbing injection) before the first cut reduces pain and the need for opioids more than giving it after the incision. Participants will report pain scores and opioid use for 90 days after surgery. The goal is to find the best timing for better pain control and less reliance on strong painkillers.
