Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical TrialPain control after microlaparoscopy.
To evaluate the efficacy of intraperitoneal subdiaphragmatic instillation of 0.5% lidocaine and 0.5% bupivacaine infiltration of cannula sites to control pain after diagnostic microlaparoscopy. ⋯ Postoperative intraperitoneal lidocaine and bupivacaine infiltration of cannula sites offered a detectable benefit to women undergoing diagnostic microlaparoscopy. The effect was temporary, but induced a significant decrease in the postoperative pain for approximately 6 hours.
