Impact of Aripiprazole on Postoperative Analgesia in Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The analgesic effect of perioperative use of aripiprazole has not been fully investigated.
So, this study aims to test the effects of aripiprazole versus placebo in reducing postoperative pain following laparoscopic hysterectomy and to explore the potential side effects.

Active Comparator: Aripiprazole Patients will receive Aripiprazole 30 mg tablet orally 3 h before surgery |
Drug: ARIPiprazole 30 MG
Patients will receive Aripiprazole 30 mg tablet orally 3 h before surgery

Placebo Comparator: Placebo Patients will receive placebo tablet which is identical in appearance, size, shape, and color to aripiprazole 3 h before surgery. |
Drug: Placebo
Patients will receive placebo tablet which is identical in appearance, size, shape, and color to aripiprazole 3 h before surgery

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- First time to analgesic requirement [First 24 hours postoperatively]
After extubation, an intravenous patient-controlled analgesia system, will be connected to the patient (Accufuser PlusĀ® 100 ml, Woo Young Medical Co, Korea) will be prepared with 60 ml normal saline containing 60 mg morphine, it will be programmed to give and 0.5 ml bolus dose with lockout interval of 8 minutes. Time to first Bolus will be estimated considering extubation time is the zero time.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Total opioid consumption [First 24 hours postoperatively]
Total morphine consumption per twenty four hours will be estimated
- Visual analogue scale (VAS) [First 24 hours postoperatively]
Pain scores will be evaluated by a blinded observer anesthesiologist at the time of arrival in the PACU, and 10, 20, 30 minutes, 1 h, 2h, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 24 hr thereafter using visual analogue scale (VAS) (0-10 cm: 0 = no pain, 10 = the worst pain possible). The patients will be instructed about usage of VAS preoperatively
