Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of postsurgical catheter-related bladder discomfort after preoperative pregabalin administration

    Assessment of discomfort will be made by a scale of four (1=no discomfort, 2=mild discomfort reported on questioning only, 3=moderate discomfort, urge to pass urine reported by the patient without questioning, 4= severe discomfort, urge to pass urine accompanied by behavioral responses, such as flailing limbs, strong vocal responses or attempts to pull the catheter out)

    Change from preoperative status to postoperative one at 0, 1, 2, 6, 24 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Postoperative pain assessed by NPRS scale (Numeric Pain Rating Scale)

    Total amount of analgesics in morphine analogues administered in the first 24 hours postoperatively

  • Adverse effects of the drug

    All adverse effects observed in the first 24 hours postoperatively

  • Assessment of postoperative sedation

    In the operating theatre immediately after patient's extubation
