ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is designed to study how different pain relief methods affect recovery in women who have an elective cesarean section. The researchers will compare two techniques: a transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block, which is an injection to numb the abdominal area, and wound infiltration, where pain relievers are injected directly into the surgical site. They will use a questionnaire called the Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) to understand how well patients recover from surgery. Additionally, the study will look at pain levels, the amount of medication needed for pain relief, and any side effects like nausea or itching during the first 24 hours after surgery.

To participate in this trial, women between the ages of 18 and 50 who are having a planned cesarean section under spinal anesthesia may be eligible. However, those who have had general anesthesia, need an emergency cesarean section, or have certain medical conditions, such as bleeding disorders or infections at the injection site, will not be able to join. This study is not yet recruiting participants, but it aims to help improve pain management and recovery experiences for future mothers undergoing cesarean deliveries.
