Summary

laparoscopic appendectomy is most common surgical procedure necessitates evidence-based clinical pathways such as Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). The paradigm of surgery has been shifted from open to laparoscopic. Laparoscopic appendectomy is the most common procedure performed in our institute for acute and chronic appendicitis. Pain control in ERAS is one of the key factors for improved outcomes. Surgery induced acute postoperative pain, stress response, and fatigue lead to prolonged convalescence and hospital stay. Optimal titrated safe postoperative pain management in laparoscopic appendectomy patients remains a challenge.
