Brief Summary
A prospective randomized trial will be performed. Patients undergoing gastric bypass will be randomized into 2 groups: patients undergoing laparoscopic-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block as part of multimodal analgesia (Group 1), associated with postoperative intravenous analgesia, and patients receiving only postoperative intravenous analgesia (Group 2). Postoperative pain will be assessed with a Visual Analogic Scale 24h after surgery and morphine needs will be quantified.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Postoperative pain
Pain quantification will be assessed with a Visual Analogic Scale
24 hours after surgery
Study Arms (2)
Metamizol iv
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe patients will receive only intravenous analgesia with Metamizole 2g/8 hours for control of postoperative pain.
