Abstract

Postoperative pain delays recovery after laparoscopic cholecystectomy which is done as a daycare surgery. Opioid analgesia carries adverse effects like nausea, vomiting and respiratory depression which can affect postoperative recovery. Our aim was to compare lignocaine infusion with saline infusion as perioperative ERAS measure for postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
