Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Total morphine consumption

Rescue analgesia of morphine will be given as a 3 mg bolus if the numeric rating scale (NRS) \> 3, to be repeated after 30 min if pain persists until the NRS \< 4.

Time frame
24 hours postoperatively

Secondary outcomes

1

Time to the 1st rescue analgesia.

Time to the first request for the rescue analgesia (time from end of surgery to first dose of morphine administrated).

Time frame
24 hours postoperatively
2

Degree of pain

Each patient will be instructed about postoperative pain assessment with the numeric rating scale (NRS). NRS (0 represents "no pain" while 10 represents "the worst pain imaginable"). NRS will be assessed at 0, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 24 h postoperatively.

Time frame
24 hours postoperatively
3

Heart rate

Heart rate will be recorded preoperatively and every 15 minutes till the end of surgery.

Time frame
Till the end of surgery (Up to 2 hours)
4

Mean arterial pressure

Mean arterial pressure will be recorded preoperatively and every 15 minutes till the end of surgery.
