Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block will reduce the cumulative opioid consumption compared to local wound infiltration (WI). It will also learn about the pain scores compared between TAP and WI groups. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Has the pain score after cesarean section been less in TAP compared to WI group? Has the cumulative consumption of opioids reduced in TAP as compared to WI group? Researchers will compare TAP group with WI group based on postoperative pain score and opioid used.

Participants will:

Be given intervention either TAP or WI during the cesarean section. Pain score will be recorded during the postoperative period at PACU, 6, 12 and 24 hours after cesarean section.

The postoperative pain will be rescued with opioid, and the cumulative use of opioids will be recorded.
