ClinConnect Summary
Cesarean delivery is one of the most common surgical procedures worldwide and is associated with significant postoperative pain that includes both somatic and visceral components . Effective pain management not only enhances patient comfort and satisfaction but also facilitates early mobilization and reduces maternal morbidity . Although the Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block is widely used as part of a multimodal analgesia strategy, its relatively short duration of action and limited ability to relieve visceral pain have prompted the search for improved alternatives .
