      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Patients will be allocated into 3 groups using a permuted balanced block randomization method with the size of blocks 6. Random sequence will be generated by an epidemiologist by running an online program in sealed envelope website (https://www.sealedenvelope.com/). Random chain concealment is done by opaque envelope method, Blinding description: This study will be established as a double-blind trial. None of the patients will be aware of the type of medication they are receiving. These medications will be administered to the patients by the anesthesiologist. Each medication will be drawn into a separate syringe, which will be covered with a label, and its contents will not be identifiable. Furthermore, the medications in each syringe will be coded, and only the primary supervisor, who is an anesthesiologist, will know their contents. The intern responsible for recording outcomes will not be aware of the patient grouping or the coding system. Patients will be assessed based on their medical record number, and the collected data will be handed over to the attending physician.</study_design>
