Ketolorac Versus Saline at Laparoscopic Incision Sites

Withdrawn before enrolling · Phase 4

Conditions studied: Pain, Postoperative

In brief

Pain control following surgery is a critical aspect of patient care. Pain at incision sites in laparoscopic surgery contributes to overall pain felt by a patient. There is no definitive proof that the typical medications (such as lidocaine) injected at incision sites during surgery improve pain control. This study looks at a different type of medication (ketorolac - an NSAID) to better control pain at laparoscopic incision sites.
