NCT03203070

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.
