This study is a triple-blind randomized controlled trial conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Brussels. It investigates whether a single dose of S-ketamine can reduce opioid (morphine) consumption in the first 24 hours after elective laparoscopic gynecological surgery in relatively healthy adult patients (ASA 1-2). The goal is to assess S-ketamine's effectiveness within a standardized postoperative pain management protocol.
