Landmann A, et al. - Researchers here compared a technique of surgeon-performed, laparoscopic abdominal wall nerve blocks to anesthesia-placed, ultrasound-guided abdominal wall nerve blocks and the current standard of local wound infiltration.In this study, laparoscopic-guided abdominal wall nerve blocks proved to have similar efficacy to ultrasound-guided nerve blocks performed by pain management physicians without increasing time in the operating room.
