Comparing two pain block methods for hysterectomy recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of pain blocks (TAP block and rectus sheath block) given before a hysterectomy to see which one provides better pain relief and sensation coverage. The goal is to help patients have less pain after surgery.
