Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Postoperative pain. Timepoint: During the first 24 hours after surgery. Method of measurement: By Visual Analogue Scale (Score 1-10, 1=No pain, 10= worst pain).;The amount of opioids consumption. Timepoint: During the first 24 hours after surgery. Method of measurement: The total dose of the drug administrated.;Changes in Systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Timepoint: After blowing gas into the peritoneal cavity and during the surgery. Method of measurement: Measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressure by a barometer in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).;Changes in mean arterial pressure. Timepoint: After blowing gas into the peritoneal cavity and during the surgery. Method of measurement: Mean arterial pressure in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), measured by systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure by a barometer and calculate through Mean arterial pressure = systolic blood pressure + 2(diastolic blood pressure)/3.
