Response - NO
Brief Summary   In this study , we aim to determine the best possible combination for opioid-free monitored anaesthesia care using minimal drugs in patients posted for routine hysteroscopy and dilatation and curettage , to shorten recovery time , minimise pain , reduce incidence of post operative nausea vomiting , maintain stable hemodynamics and oxygen saturation while increasing patient’s comfort and surgeon’s convenience
