Effect of Magnesium Sulphate Pretreatment in Pediatric Abdominal Surgery
In this study, the investigators will compare the effect of magnesium sulphate pretreatment on the onset and duration of intense and deep neuromuscular Block of rocuronium versus Cis-Atracurium and on the period of no response to nerve stimulation in children undergoing elective open abdominal surgeries.
Simethicone as Part of ERAS in Bariatric Surgery Patients
By conducting this study, we hope to assess if simethicone (also known as Gas Relief or GasX) has an effect on improving gas pain and bloating specifically in patients undergoing foregut procedures to include bariatric procedures (sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass), hiatal hernia, and gastric surgery. The purpose of this …
Comparative Study of Tranexamic Acid Dosing in Cardiac Surgery
Tranexamic axid is routinely used as an antifibrinolytic agent in cardiac surgery to reduce the risk of blood loss and transfusion. However, there is no consensus regarding the dosage regimen of tranexamic acid that should be administered. The purpose of this study is to compare different dosages of tranexamic acid …
The Occurrence of Emergence Agitation in Pediatric Strabismus Surgery

Intravenous Methadone for Sternotomy Pain Control in Cardiac Surgery
Background Postoperative pain is significant in cardiac surgical patients. Perioperative analgesia with intermittent administration of opioids can result in significant fluctuations in serum opioid concentrations. Methadone should provide a rapid onset and long-term pain relief upon a single intravenous dose at induction of anaesthesia, and may reduce chronic postsurgical pain …
Reducing Inflammatory Syndrome in Surgery - Colorectal (RISIS-CR) Trial

Smoking is the leading risk factor for postoperative complications and is associated with longer hospital stays, reoperations, and 30-day mortality. Smoking rates among patients …
Intrathecal Morphine Versus Epidural Analgesia for Open Colon Surgery
Effective pain management after abdominal surgery is essential for recovery. This study compares two pain relief methods-intrathecal morphine (a single spinal injection) and continuous epidural analgesia-for patients undergoing open colorectal cancer surgery. The investigators expect intrathecal morphine to provide equal pain relief at rest 24 hours after surgery, while epidural …
