Brief summary
This study is designed as a population-based prospective randomized cohort study. A prospective cohort of patients admitted to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy due to morbid obesity
Detailed description
All adult consecutive patients admitted to surgical departments for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy will be enrolled prospectively. For the purposes of the current study we want to determine how much paracetamol (acetaminophen) can reduce the cytokines levels in these patients The study enrollment period is planned to be a year. The follow-up period for each patient will be until discharge from the hospital.
Interventions
100 gram paracetamol infusion for moderate pain management
100 ml of Normal Saline (IV NaCl 0.9 %) as placebo
