Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a transformative approach in gallstone disease
surgery, has significantly reduced postoperative morbidity. However, optimal management of
postoperative pain remains a challenge, influencing recovery and surgical outcomes. In
pursuit of enhanced pain control, the exploration of adjunctive analgesic techniques,
particularly intraperitoneal administration, has gained prominence.
Objective: This study investigates the efficacy of the Intraperitoneal Ropivacaine with
Tramadol (iPERT) regime in postoperative pain management following laparoscopic
cholecystectomy. The primary outcomes include the mitigation of pain intensity, reduction in
opioid consumption, and enhancement of overall patient comfort during the immediate
postoperative period.
