Abstract
Aim : To compare the analgesic efficacy of 0.25% Bupivacaine and 0.25% Ropivacaine in TAP block as a part of a multimodal analgesia regimen for post Laparotomy pain management.
Materials and Methodology: Patients more than 18 years old posted for emergency laparotomy in a tertiary care centre of eastern India. After approval from the institutional ethical committee and written informed patients consent, 60 Patients were included in the study.
Mode Of Selection Of Cases: Randomised computer sampling technique.Group A: TAP Block with 0.25% Bupivacaine 20 ml each side Group B: TAP Block with 0.25% Ropivacaine 20 ml each side
Conclusion :We conclude that the Inj. Bupivacaine and Inj. Ropivacaine provide comparable analgesia in TAP block for post operative Analgesia following Emergency laparotomy
