NCT06375057

Brief Summary

Many patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy are prone to developing acute and chronic post-operative pain. The aim of the study is to show a possible correlation between pain and acute phase proteins in order to:

  • predict the severity of pain;
  • select most suitable pain relief therapy for the patient.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Relationship Between Post-operative Pain and C Reactive Protein (CRP) in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

    The study compares post-operative pain, measured with the NRS scale, with CRP (µg/L) levels 24 hours after surgery

    one day

  • Relationship Between Post-operative Pain and D-dimer in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

    The study compares post-operative pain, measured with the NRS scale, with D-dimer (µg/L FEU) levels 24 hours after surgery

    one day

  • Relationship Between Post-operative Pain and Fibrinogen in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

    The study compares post-operative pain, measured with the NRS scale, with fibrinogen (g/L) levels 24 hours after surgery

    one day

  • Relationship Between Post-operative Pain and white blood cell count in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

    The study compares post-operative pain, measured with the NRS scale, with white blood cell count (x 10\^9/L) 24 hours after surgery

    one day

  • Relationship Between Post-operative Pain and Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

    The study compares post-operative pain, measured with the NRS scale, with Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) 24 hours after surgery. NLR results from the ratio between the level of neutrophils and lymphocytes.
