Transversus abdominis plane block with liposomal bupivacaine versus continuous epidural analgesia for major abdominal surgery: The EXPLANE randomized trial

Alparslan Turan et al.

Summary: The study found that patients receiving transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks and epidural analgesia had similar pain scores at rest, but patients in the TAP group required more opioids over the first 3 postoperative days and experienced less hypotension compared to the epidural group.

Epidural vs. transversus abdominis plane block for abdominal surgery - a systematic review, meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis

N. Desai et al.

Summary: Epidural analgesia showed lower pain scores at rest at 12 hours compared to transversus abdominis plane block, but the quality of evidence was low. However, there was no difference at 24 hours. Epidural analgesia reduced the need for intravenous morphine-equivalent consumption, but also increased the risk of hypotension. Confidence in the evidence varied, creating uncertainty in the estimates when choosing between epidural analgesia and transversus abdominis plane block.

Effectiveness of Liposomal Bupivacaine Compared With Standard-of-Care Measures in Pediatric Cardiothoracic Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Christopher F. Tirotta et al.

Summary: The study found that in pediatric patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery, the use of liposomal bupivacaine (LB) significantly reduced in-hospital opioid consumption, shortened hospital length of stay, and decreased total hospital costs compared to non-LB analgesia.

Epidural analgesia for postoperative pain: Improving outcomes or adding risks?

Narinder Rawal

Summary: Current evidence suggests that the benefits of epidural analgesia (EA) are not as significant as previously believed, while the risks of adverse effects and serious complications are higher than expected. This has led to a decreasing role of EA in clinical practice, with less invasive and safer alternatives gaining more attention.
