Summary
This trial compares two pain relief methods, TAP and QL blocks, for patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgeries. These methods involve injecting numbing medication into specific areas of the abdomen to block pain. The goal is to see which method provides better pain control and reduces the need for opioid medications. TAP blocks have been shown to successfully reduce pain and opioid consumption after various types of surgeries, including abdominal and urological procedures.
