Scientific titleProspective randomized trial to assess the efficacy of 0.5% Marcaine subserosal injection in the gall bladder fossa to reduce the post operative pain from laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Study hypothesisPain after Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (key hole removal of gall bladder) is much lower than an open operation for the removal of gall bladder. However one can still expect mild to moderate pain after the key hole operation.
Can we reduce the post operative pain after the key hole operation by injecting local anaesthetic in the gall bladder bed?
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
ConditionSigns and Symptoms: Pain
InterventionWe will recruit every suitable patient who undergoes a Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy under either of the Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeons at Frimley Park Hospital.
They will be given information leaflet about Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and also given a leaflet with a diagram showing the site of injection.
An informed consent will be taken for the study in addition to the standard consent form for the procedure.
The surgeon will be unaware of the nature of the solution that he will inject into the gall bladder fossa (saline and bupivicaine injection will be shown to him pre op to check their details).
A member of the team will draw an envelope to randomize the patients in either arm and will brief the nurse about the injection without the surgeon becoming aware of this Solution will be carefully injected with a 0.2 mm epidural needle connected to a syringe percutaneously in the subserosal area taking great care not to inject intravascularly.
The rest of the operation will be performed as normal.

Pain levels will be assessed at various periods after the operation and the results will be compared.
