Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study aims to determine whether Ropivacaine-Poloxamer 407 hydrogel provides non-inferior pain control compared to TAP block for patients undergoing minimally invasive gastrectomy. The results will guide postoperative pain management practices and enhance recovery protocols for gastric cancer surgery.
