-
Post-operative Narcotic Usage
Time frame: 48 hours
Narcotic usage was collected for first 48 hours post-operatively after breast reconstruction. The type and amount of each narcotic administered were each converted to the morphine equivalent amount that would be orally administered to achieve the same event. This term is known as the oral morphine equivalent (OME). Narcotic usage was assessed between the group receiving transversus abdominis plane
Sponsor's own description
The primary objective is to determine if pre-operative transversus abdominis plane (TAP) nerve blocks by continued infusion of local anesthetic post-operatively affects post-operative narcotic usage, as compared to a placebo TAP block, after breast reconstruction surgery.
