简要总结
This prospective interventional study was carried out at Liaquat National Hospital and Medical College to evaluate and compare the postoperative analgesic effects of intravenous lidocaine and magnesium sulphate in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A total of 168 ASA I-II patients were enrolled and randomly allocated into two groups of 84 participants each (Group L: Lidocaine, Group M: Magnesium Sulphate) using a sealed-envelope randomization technique in a double-blind, placebo-controlled design. All patients received standardized general anesthesia with propofol, isoflurane, and atracurium, and routine postoperative care included intravenous diclofenac sodium and ondansetron. Postoperative pain was measured at 1, 6, 12, and 24 hours using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to assess and compare the efficacy and duration of analgesia between the two groups. The study aimed to provide insight into the relative analgesic performance of lidocaine and magnesium sulphate, supporting improved pain management strategies following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
详细描述
Optimal management of postoperative pain is crucial for enhancing recovery, minimizing stress responses, and promoting better outcomes after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This prospective interventional study was carried out in the Department of Anesthesiology at Liaquat National Hospital and Medical College to compare the analgesic effects of intravenous lidocaine and magnesium sulphate in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
A total of 168 patients classified as ASA I-II with uncomplicated symptomatic gallstones were enrolled after obtaining ethical approval and written informed consent. Participants were randomly assigned into two equal groups of 84 patients each (Group L: Lidocaine, Group M: Magnesium Sulphate) using a sealed-envelope technique. The study employed a double-blind, placebo-controlled design to ensure unbiased evaluation. Patients with ASA III-V, chronic pain disorders, psychiatric conditions, pregnancy or breastfeeding, major hepatic, renal, or cardiovascular disease, or recent use of opioids or NSAIDs were excluded from the study.
All patients underwent standard preoperative assessment, including overnight fasting and anesthetic evaluation. General anesthesia was induced with propofol and atracurium and maintained with isoflurane. Intraoperative monitoring included heart rate, blood pressure, ECG, oxygen saturation, and end-tidal CO₂. Residual neuromuscular blockade was reversed with neostigmine at the end of surgery. Postoperative care included intravenous diclofenac sodium every 8 hours for baseline analgesia and ondansetron for prevention of nausea and vomiting.
Postoperative pain intensity was recorded at 1, 6, 12, and 24 hours using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Patients experiencing significant pain were administered intravenous Kinz 5 mg as rescue analgesia, and the timing was documented by nursing staff.
This study provided important information on the comparative efficacy of lidocaine and magnesium sulphate for postoperative pain management, highlighting their potential role in multimodal analgesic strategies to improve patient comfort and recovery following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

研究组 & 干预措施
Magnesium Sulphate Group
The magnesium sulfate dose was prepared as 2 mg, diluted with normal saline to a total volume of 10 mL, and administered intravenously as a single stat dose at the time of anesthesia reversal after completion of surgery.
干预措施: IV 2mg of Magnesium Sulphate (Drug)
Lidocaine Group
A total of 3 mL of 2% lidocaine was combined with 7 mL of normal saline to prepare a 10 mL solution, which was given intravenously as a single stat dose at the time of anesthesia reversal immediately after the surgery was completed.
干预措施: IV Lidocain 60 mg/kg (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Postoperative Pain Score
时间窗: Postoperative pain was assessed at the 1st, 6th, 12th, and 24th hours.
Postoperative pain intensity was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 1, 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery to evaluate and compare the effectiveness and duration of analgesia between the ketamine and lidocaine groups. These time intervals were selected to monitor both the early and late postoperative pain responses during the first 24 hours of recovery.
