TAP block

The intervention is a transabdominal plane (TAP) block given in the abdomen to block pain receptors on nerves -during surgery can presumably decrease postoperative pain. Currently, TAP blocks are approved for use and performed based on surgeon preference (e.g. some surgeons perform them on every case, others variably, etc.).
