Then a standard nerve block catheter will be inserted percutaneously from just lateral to the rectus abdominis muscle cephalad to the incision. The catheter will then be placed in an oblique direction along the border of the 12th rib and the tip will be placed as far lateral as the incision allows without dissecting any further tissue. The surgeon will then close the muscle layer of the internal oblique over the catheter and in a third layer close the external oblique and subcutaneous tissue before closing skin. The catheter will be fixed to skin via a specialized taping system, which we use to secure all nerve catheters, obliviating the need to suture the catheter to skin and thus running the risk of occluding it. In the event that surgical incision crosses midline and is bilateral, the surgeon will place a second TAP catheter in the method described above on the contralateral side. Our postoperative pain regimen will include the following. All patients will receive the current standard of care in our hospital, which is an intravenous morphine PCA pump. Additionally the patient will be able to receive a breakthrough dose of i.v. morphine prn. All patients will have adjunctive medications ordered.
