Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary goal of this study will be assessment of the effectiveness of OFA in transthoracic oesophagectomy in comparison with opioid-based technique (OBA) regarding the postoperative pain profile assessed by the visual analogue score (VAS) for 6 hours (0 = no pain, 1 - 3 = mild pain, 4 - 6 = moderate pain, 7 - 10 = severe pain)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Respiratory rate and oxygen saturation will be recorded immediately before and after extubation and every 10 minutes for 30 minutes postoperative then it will be recorded every hour for the next 6 hours in the ICU.;Postoperative hemodynamics including mean heart rate (bpm) and MAP (mmHg) which will be recorded from the immediate postextubation, and every hour till the next 6 hours postoperatively;The incidence of postoperative hypoxia (Spo2= 90%) to which oxygen (6-10 L) via face mask will be applied during the first 6 hours postoperative and according to response to this step the patients will be assessed clinically by (respiratory rate, Spo2, ABG) for the need of mechanical ventilation either invasive or non-invasive.;Incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting during the first 6 hours which will be treated by granisetrone 1mg intravenous.
