Summary

The instillation of local anesthetic into the peritoneum has been found to be safe and effective in reducing postoperative pain and morphine consumption after abdominal surgery. A review of studies reporting serum levels of local anesthetic after intraperitoneal delivery found no cases of clinical toxicity in any of the trials. The studies in this meta-analysis did not include post-cesarean delivery pain and there is a lack of data to support the use of intraperitoneal local anesthetic after cesarean section.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of intraperitoneal lidocaine on postoperative pain scores after cesarean delivery. This study will compare a 20ml solution of lidocaine (400mg) with epinephrine 5mcg/ml versus normal saline (placebo) instilled into the peritoneum at the end of surgery in women undergoing cesarean delivery. The investigators hypothesize that intraperitoneal lidocaine will result in lower pain scores, reduce opioid consumption and opioid related side effects, and higher maternal satisfaction after cesarean delivery.
