Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Not applicable - Observational study: in this study no experimental intervention or treatment is applied.It involves observations done in the retrospective manner.Data obtained from hospital database from yr Dec-2011-June-2012 Acute pain service data also used.Since the surgery has already been done there is no intervention in that course. But the satisfaction outcomes are measured by doing a likert score to observe what extent these methods benefited in each group.
Intervention code [1] 284892 0
Not applicable
Comparator / control treatment
There are only two groups
Active group: Wound infiltration group ( Bupivacaine)
The comparator group: The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) (Mode of administration of bupivacaine in TAP plane.)
Control group
Active
