Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All consenting and hemodynamically stabel patients undergoing laparoscopic diversion colostomy

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To provide longer and superior post operative pain relief for patients undergoing laparoscopic diversion colostomy by using TAP Block as opposed to local wound infiltrationTimepoint: Post op pain will be assessed using the VAS scores in the first 12 hours i.e. on shifting the patient to recovery, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours and 12 hours.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
To measure the requirement of post op opioidsTimepoint: Need of opioids postoperatively in recovery & in the first 12 hours.;To measure the difference in peak expiratory flow rate preoperatively & compare post operatively in both study armsTimepoint: Preoperative PEFR will be measured in the ward or holding bay for baseline values & compared with post operative PEFR measured in ward after 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours & 12 hours.;To evaluate the length of hospital stayTimepoint: Postoperative length of hospital stay	—
