Surgery pain relief: does when you get the numbing shot matter?

NCT ID NCT07064200

Summary

This study is looking at the best time to give a pain-numbing injection (called a TAP block) to patients having planned abdominal surgery, like weight-loss surgery. Researchers want to see if giving the injection before the first cut leads to better pain control and less need for strong painkillers like opioids after surgery, compared to giving it after the surgery is done. They will measure patients' pain levels and medication use for 90 days after their operation.
