Interventions

bilateral ultrasound-guided rectus sheath blockprocedure

Ultrasound is used to guide the deposition of Ropivacaine 0.2% 1cc/kg in the posterior sheath of the rectus muscle containing the peripheral nerves that innervate the abdomen.

Wound infiltrationprocedure

Ropivacaine 0.2% 1cc/kg is injected subcutaneously at the site of incision by the surgeon.
