Abstract:
Acute postoperative pain causes stress response and delays patient recovery after abdominal surgery. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the effect of intravenous dexmedetomidine, lignocaine and their combination on postoperative pain and recovery under general anesthesia. Ninety patients undergoing abdominal surgery were observed and assessed using NRS and QoR-15 at 24 and 48 hours. Combination group showed lowest pain score, least analgesic use and best recovery indicating superior analgesic benefit with combined use.
