About this study

In this study, the investigators will study spinal anesthesia for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in comparison to general anesthesia (GA) regarding patient satisfaction as a primary variable, intraoperative complications, postoperative analgesic requirements, postoperative nausea and vomiting, patient hospital stay (secondary variables).

Being tested
Bupivacaine with Fentanyl (Spinal Anesthesia), General anesthesia

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bupivacaine with Fentanyl (Spinal Anesthesia)Drug

    Also called intrathecal

    Intrathecal injection of 15 mg Bupivacaine 0.5% at L 2-3 level mixed with 20 µ Fentanyl. Patients head will be lowered till sensory level of T 6 is abstained.

  • General anesthesiaDrug

    Induction by propofl 1.5-2 mg/kg, Fentanyl 1-2 mic/kg and atracrium 0.5 mg/kg Then maintained using Sevoflurane based anesthesia aiming to maintain Bispectral index 40-60..
