A prospective randomized controlled trial investigating the use of long acting local anesthetic for transversus abdominis block in patients undergoing bariatric surgery at Montefiore Medical Center. Patients will be randomized to either receive an intraoperative TAP block with LB, an intraoperative TAP block with RB, or no TAP block. All participants will receive standard post-operative analgesia regimen. Pain scores will be recorded by the nursing staff as reported by the patients for 24-36 hours post surgery. Patients will be monitored for secondary post-operative complications up to the 2-week mark following intervention.
