Brief Summary

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the most accepted surgical technique for cholelithiasis as compared to open cholecystectomy. Although laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) results in less pain than open chole-cystectomy, it is not a pain-free procedure.Multimodal analgesia including parenteral opioids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) or local infiltration with local anesthetics is used to reduce pain. Despite their efficacy, all parenteral medications have associated adverse effectsIntraperitoneal injections of local anaesthetic have been proposed to minimize postoperative pain after laparoscopic surgeries. Adjuvants are often added to local anaesthetics for nerve blocks to prolong its anaesthetic effects. Alpha 2 agonists such as clonidine or dexmedetomidine and opioids like fentanyl combined with Bupivacaine has shown to increase the duration of anaesthesia significantly.Ropivacaine newer analgesic, with better toxicity profile compared with other local anaesthetic, such as Bupivacaine, is considered the safest, long acting local anaesthetic available in market.Since there are a few studies which have compared the nociceptive effects of intraperitoneal fentanyl to intraperitoneal dexmedetomidine, Hence the present study was undertaken to compare the effects of intraperitoneal bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine or fentanyl as adjuvants, in patients undergoing ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy
