Protocol summary

Study aim
The Postoperative pain of laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most common complications of this surgery. Analgesic drugs are commonly used to control this pain. Therefore, considering the importance of this issue, the current study aimed to examine the preventive effect of intramuscular ketamine and methadone on pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Design
90 patient candidates for laparoscopic cholecystitis surgery participated in this double-blind, randomized clinical trial study, with informed consent in Al-Zahra and Kashani hospitals in 2015-2017
Settings and conduct
Double-blind, randomized clinical trial study , 90 patents in Al-Zahra and Kashani hospitals in 2015-2017.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The entrance criterias included candidates for laparoscopic cholecystectomy, American Society of Anesthesiologists class 1 or class 2 (ASA), and the age between 18 and 75 years. Patients with a history of addiction to benzodiazepines or narcotics, including methadone, were not included in the study (exclusion criterion). If the duration of the surgery was longer (more than two hours), the surgical procedure was to be changed to laparotomy, a blood transfusion to the patient was required, or the type of anesthesia was to be changed, the patient would be excluded from the study
Intervention groups
The patient candidates were randomly divided into three groups. The first group received 1.5mg / kg ketamine, the second group received 0.15mg / kg methadone, and the third group received preoperative normal saline intra-muscularly
Main outcome variables
Hemodynamic changes, postoperative pain, the need for analgesic drugs, and the side effects of the procedure were investigated in the groups.
