Summary

This present investigation aims to determine whether a transversus abdominous plane(TAP) block, utilizing liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel), at the conclusion of a cesarean section decreases post-operative pain. The hypothesis is that performance of the TAP block with liposomal bupivacaine will decrease post-operative narcotic use.
