Interventions
transversus abdominis plane block
The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a regional anesthesia technique used primarily to provide pain relief for patients undergoing surgery in the abdominal region. The TAP block targets the nerves that supply sensations to the skin and muscles of the abdominal wall.
rectus sheat block
The rectus sheath block is a type of regional anesthesia used primarily for pain management in the abdominal area. It involves injecting local anesthetic into the rectus sheath, which is the fibrous sheath that envelops the rectus abdominis muscle. This block targets the lower intercostal nerves as they traverse through the sheath, thereby providing analgesia to the anterior abdominal wall.
