Setting and patients: Sixty (American Society of Anesthesiologist class I-II) patients undergoing
cholecystectomy
laparoscopic cholecystectomy were divided into 2 groups.
Intervention: Patients in group DT received 50 mg dexketoprofen trometamol, whereas patients in group
DS received 75 mg diclofenac sodium, intravenously 30 minutes before the end of surgery.
Measurements: Postoperative pain intensity, morphine consumption with patient-controlled analgesia, time
to first analgesic requirement, complications, rescue analgesic (intravenous tenoxicam 20 mg) requirement,
and duration of hospital stay were recorded.
Main results: Postoperative pain visual analog scale scores were similar in the follow-up periods (P N
.05). Patient-controlled analgesia morphine consumption was significantly less in group DT compared
with group DS in all postoperative follow-up periods (2 and 4 hours: P b .01; 8, 12, 18, and 24 hours: P b
.001). In the postoperative period, the first analgesic requirement time was significantly longer in
group DT compared with group DS (P b .01). In addition, the number of patients requiring
rescue analgesic was higher in group DS compared with group DT (P b .01). Other follow-up parameters
were similar.

Conclusion: In our study, administration of intravenous single-dose dexketoprofen trometamol 30

minutes before the end of surgery provided effective analgesia with reduced consumption of opioids and
requirement for rescue analgesic compared with diclofenac sodium in patients undergoing laparoscopic
cholecystectomy. For this reason, we believe that, as a part of multimodal analgesia, dexketoprofen
trometamol provides more effective analgesia than diclofenac sodium in patients undergoing
laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
