Summary
Studies evaluating intraperitoneal local anesthetic instillation for pain relief after
laparoscopic procedures have provided conflicting results. This randomized, double-blind
study was designed to assess the effects of a novel intraperitoneal local anesthetic
administration technique using nebulization on pain relief after laparoscopic
cholecystectomy.
