About this study

Official title: Comparison Between Mean Duration of Post-operative Analgesia of Intraperitoneal Bupivacaine Alone or With Dexmedetomidine Following Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

For patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis, laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is a customary procedure for treatment these days. After LC, patients may experience considerable pain. This study was performed with the objective of comparing the mean duration of analgesia of intraperitoneal bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine to intraperitoneal bupivacaine alone in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Being tested
Bupivacaine injection, Dexmedetomidine injection

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Duration of analgesia

    The duration of postoperative analgesia was calculated as the time in minutes starting after the dressing of the patient in the operation room until the patient had a VAS≥3.

    Measured: 24 hours

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Duration of analgesia (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
