Study Summary

After undergoing hernia surgery, hydrocelectomy or lower abdominal surgery, a child may experience some amount of pain in the post-operative period. As part of the anesthesia technique, the investigators routinely provide a nerve block done on the abdominal wall that will provide pain relief for at least 10 hours postoperatively. This is referred to as a TAP block. The purpose of this study is to determine if the nerve block performed with local anesthetic solution using a regular concentration solution vs. a diluted solution may offer different durations of pain relief.
