Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
A prospective randomised control trial to compare the incidence of post operative delirium following laparoscopic cholecystectomy under Isoflurane inhalational anaesthesia and Propofol based Total Intravenous Anaesthesia.  The primary outcome will be the incidence of delirium with in first 2 post operative days. The delirium will be assessed by Confusion Assessment Method once a day between 3 pm to 5 pm. If the patient is discharged with in 2 days after surgery, the last assessment will be performed on the day of discharge. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1. To observe duration , severity and type of post operative delirium.
2. To assess the post operative pain.
3. To record the frequency and dose of opioid rescue medication e.g. Morphine or Tramadol for breakthrough pain.  
Observation of duration, severity and type of post operative delirium will be done with in first 2 post operative days and assessment of pain at 2, 6, 12, 24 hours post operatively by Visual Analog Scale.

Brief Summary  

This study is a double-blinded prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of Isoflurane inhalation anaesthesia and Propofol-based Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA) for post operative delirium in young female patients (aged 18-40 years) undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The study will be conducted in the Department of Anaesthesiology at the Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. The primary outcome will be the incidence of postoperative delirium within the first two days after surgery, assessed using the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM). Secondary outcomes include observation of duration , severity , type of delirium within first 2 post operative days and assessment of pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at 2, 6, 12 and 24 hours post operatively and documenting the frequency and dose of Opioid rescue medication ( Morphine or Tramadol) for break through pain if needed post operatively.
