Postoperative Pain After Instillation Of Bupivacaine During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Plain-language summary

This study aims to compare the level of postoperative pain experienced by patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with and without the use of intraperitoneal bupivacaine. Bupivacaine, a long-acting local anesthetic, is hypothesized to reduce postoperative pain when instilled into the peritoneal cavity at the end of the procedure. The study will involve adult patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy and will assess pain levels using standardized pain scoring methods at various postoperative intervals. By evaluating and comparing outcomes in both groups, the study seeks to determine whether the routine use of intraperitoneal bupivacaine provides significant analgesic benefits, contributing to enhanced recovery and improved patient comfort following surgery
