Endotracheal Tube (ETT) 180: Stylet-loaded Endotracheal Tube Rotation Before Insertion

The main objective of the proposed study is to clarify whether rotating a stylet-loaded endotracheal tube (ETT) 180 degrees prior to intubation will decrease the incidence of postoperative throat soreness, when compared to standard technique used in Standard of Care.

Opioid Free Versus Opioid Balanced Anesthesia in Ophthalmic Surgery

Anesthesia without the use of opioid (Opioid free anesthesia) is an alternative to conventional opioid balanced anesthesia, with less post operative nausea and vomiting, and comparable analgesia. This study aim to compare the effect of opioid free versus opioid balanced anesthesia in ophthalmology surgery

Opioid-free Anesthesia as an Alternative to General Anesthesia in Abdominal Surgery

Due to the increasing number of reports of cancer progression in people undergoing surgery under general anesthesia using opioids, OFA is believed to have a favorable long-term prognostic effect, especially in cancer patients. The opioid-free protocol is also used in postoperative analgesia. It is estimated that up to 75% of surgical patients experience chronic postoperative pain, which has a particularly negative impact on the quality of life. The investigators would like to compare pain during the first 48 postoperative hours of patients undergoing abdominal surgery who would be anesthetized with opioids and without opioids (patients would be randomly assigned to a group) (1, 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after operations). A secondary objective will be to measure total oxycodone consumption in the postoperative period in both groups. Other secondary objectives: assessment of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
