Protocol summary

Summary
1) Major eligibility and objectives: Postoperative pain control is a concern after renal transplant and administration of systemic analgesic may be difficult because of underlying co-morbidities, and variable responses of the graft.Our main objective is evaluation the effect of transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block on postoperative pain relief following renal transplantation. 2)Participants: Inclusion criteria: 1) ASA class II and III patients 2) Aged 15–65 year who were scheduled as kidney recipients under general anesthesia Exclusion criteria: 1)Addiction to opioids 2)Long term usage of antidepressants, antipsychotics, anticonvulsants, clonidine 3) Patients with coagulopathy and hepatomegaly. 3)Design,setting and conduct : Forty-four kidney recipients were randomized into two equal groups and were anesthetized with the same technique. 4)Intervention: After the induction of anesthesia,15mL of 0.25% Bupivacaine plus 5µ/ml epinephrine in study group and the same volume of saline in control group was deposited into the transversus abdominis neurofascial plane on the side of surgery by ultrasound guide. 5)Measures and variable criteria: Each patient was assessed by a blinded investigator using NRS at first,4th,8th,12th and24hr postoperatively. Intraoperative and first 24 hours opioid consumption and demographic data were compared between the study groups.
