Arm Description

patients will received TAB block with 19 ml bupivacaine 0.25 % plus 1 ml 0.9% normal saline containing 750 IU hyaluronidase as an adjuvant in each side after closing skin.

patients will received TAB block with 19 ml bupivacaine 0.25 % plus 1 ml 0.9% normal saline containing 1500 IU hyaluronidase as an adjuvant in each side after closing skin.

patients will received TAB block with 19 ml bupivacaine 0.25 % plus 1 ml 0.9% normal saline without any adjuvant in each side after closing skin.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

the duration of analgesia
the interval between performing the block and the time of the first request for analgesia.

Secondary Outcome Measures

the postoperative pain severity
pain was assessed by the visual analog scale (VAS) pain score (range, 0-10; 0, no pain; 10, worst pain)
total morphine consumption
patient satisfaction
assessed on a four-point scale (1, excellent; 2, good; 3, fair; 4, poor)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Since TAP block needs to affect several nerves in single tissue plane with a single prick, hyaluronidase is expected to aid greatly in the spread of the LA and help the block. However, there have not been adequate studies to establish the efficacy of adding hyaluronidase in lateral TAP after cesarean section. Hence, the present study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of hyaluronidase in different concentrations added to bupivacaine in US-guided bilateral lateral TAP block.
