TAP Block for Laparoscopic Appendicectomy in Adults
Ultrasound Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) Block for Postoperative Analgesia After Laparoscopic Appendicectomy in Adults: A Double Blind Randomised Controlled Trial
Laparoscopic (key-hole) appendicectomy is a minimally invasive procedure when compared to open large bowel resection, but is still associated with a significant amount of pain and discomfort. Analgesia is commonly provided by a multi-modal technique involving varying combinations of paracetamol, Non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), regional analgesia and oral or parenteral opioids. Opioids are associated with an increased incidence of nausea, vomiting and sedation which can complicate post-operative recovery. Different techniques of intraoperative infiltration of local anaesthetic to control postoperative pain are also being used. Their perceived benefits are thought to relate to reduced opioid consumption and therefore reduced opioid side effects.
Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block is a technique which numbs the nerves carrying pain sensation from the abdominal wall and provides effective and safe analgesia with minimal systemic side effects. Their perceived benefits are thought to relate to reduced opioid consumption and therefore reduced opioid side effects. The investigators believe ultrasound guided TAP blocks will reduce pain and morphine consumption with a resultant improved patient satisfaction, a reduction in post-operative nausea and vomiting and earlier hospital discharge.
The key research question the investigators are trying to answer is whether TAP block provide better pain relief than local anaesthetic infiltration of the laparoscopic port sites. Both techniques are currently being used in the investigator's hospital.

Summary of Study Design: The study will be a double blind randomised controlled trial with patients undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy randomly allocated into two groups. The study group will receive bilateral TAP blocks and the control group will receive local anaesthetic infiltration of the laparoscopic port sites
A double blind design was chosen to eliminate patient and observer bias in reporting of pain scores.
The presence of the control arm will ensure that any difference observed will be due to the effect of sensory nerve block due to the TAP block than due to the systemic effect of the injected local anaesthetic.
The null hypothesis will be that there is no difference between the groups in the amount of opioids consumed by the patients during 24 hours after the operation. The investigators chose this measurement as an objective but indirect measurement of efficacy of TAP block and pain relief thus received. Measurement of pain with various scoring methods are reliable only when concurrent reduction in consumption of pain killers are demonstrated.
Recruitment and randomisation:
All patients meeting the inclusion criteria will receive a patient information leaflet about the study during the procedure and investigators will gain informed consent during the procedure consultation. Investigators aim to recruit 288 patients with 144 patients in each group.
Informed consent will be taken the evening before, or on the morning of, surgery. Patients will then be randomly allocated into either the study group or a control group. Randomisation will occur by using computer generated random numbers using the block randomisation method. Group allocation will be kept in a consecutively numbered, opaque, sealed envelope in the controlled drugs cupboard in theatre-4/emergency theatre anaesthetic room of the John Radcliffe Hospital. Once the patient has consented, the anaesthetist will open the corresponding numbered envelope and perform bilateral TAP blocks after induction of general anaesthesia if the patient is in the study group. The surgeons will infiltrate the port sites with local anaesthetic at the end of the procedure if the patient is in the control group.
Blinding:
The study group will receive bilateral TAP blocks with 20mls 0.25% bupivacaine on each side and the skin punctures on either sides will be covered with a small plaster. Patients in the control group will receive subcutaneous infiltration of the laparoscopic port sites and specimen extraction site with equivalent amount bupivacaine at the end of the procedure and small plasters will be stuck on either flanks approximately where the skin punctures for TAP block will be made.
The assessor of pain scores and morphine doses (Recovery nurse, Ward Nursing Staff & SEU Foundation Doctor) and the patient will be blinded to group allocation.
Patient: Plasters will be stuck on flanks of all the patients, both study and control group, so that patient will not know if they have received TAP block.
Recovery nurse: During handover to recovery the anaesthetist and scrub nurse will not mention group allocation.
SEU Foundation Doctor: The foundation doctor who will be following up patients on the ward will not be present in the operating theatre, ensuring that they are blinded to the technique used.
The study duration will be from induction of anaesthesia until the patients are medically fit for discharge from hospital. No extra visits other than routinely required for the surgical procedure are expected.

Aktywny komparator: Local anaesthetic infiltration
Laparoscopic port sites will be infiltrated with a total of 20 mls 0.5% bupivacaine subcutaneously at the end of the procedure in the control group and plasters will be stuck on either side approximately where a skin puncture for tap block would be made.

The primary endpoint will be consumption of morphine or other opioids (including tramadol) in the first 12 hours after the operation.
This will be recorded from the drug chart.
Morphine equivalents include fentanyl, codeine and tramadol and will be converted into total morphine consumption using recognised conversion ratios.
