Protocol summary

Study aim
The objective of this study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of non-opioid anesthesia (NOA) using intravenous magnesium sulphate combined with intravenous acetaminophen versus intravenous nalbuphine in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Design
A Non-Blinded randomized control trial, Single center study with two intervention groups including a sample size of 110 patients
Settings and conduct
Quasi experimental Non-Blinded Study was conducted in Department of Anaesthesia Combined Military Hospital Rawalpindi. The Method of Sampling was Non-randomized trial with Sample size of 110 (55 in each of the two groups)
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria included patients with major cardiac or respiratory disease, low ejection fraction, unoptimized for hypertension or diabetes, patients with cholecystitis, patients allergic to acetaminophen, Magnesium Sulphate (MgSO4) or Nalbuphine and patients unwilling to be included in the study.
Intervention groups
The study method included all patients as per the inclusion criteria furnished. The patients were divided into Group M (n=55) receiving Magnesium Sulphate (MgSO4) and Acetaminophen and Group N (n=55) receiving nalbuphine.
Main outcome variables
Primary outcome variables measured were intraoperative mean heart rate, mean arterial pressure, time to rescue analgesia and median pain scores at 1, 3 and 6 hour intervals. Secondary outcome variables were the incidence of hypotension, respiratory depression, nausea and vomiting between both groups.
