Brief Summary   This study "Intra-operative low dose Ketamine versus Dexmedetomidine for attenuation of post-operative pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A randomized clinical trial" will be conducted in the Department of Anesthesiology, Regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal. After obtaining ethical clearance and informed written consent, 60 patients of both sexes between the age groups of 18-60years with ASA I and II will be randomized into one of the four groups.

 Group D will receive Inj Dexmedetomidine 0.25mcg/kg IV diluted in 5ml Normal Saline, Group K will receive Inj Ketamine 0.25mg/kg IV diluted in 5ml Normal Saline and Group DK will receive a combination of Inj Dexmedetomidine 0.25mcg/kg and Inj Ketamine 0.25mg/kg IV diluted in 5ml Normal Saline, all to be given intra-operatively 20 mins before the anticipated skin closure.

Post operatively, total dose of the rescue analgesics (Inj Diclofenac IM) given in the first 24hours post-op will be compared. Sedation score (Ramsay Sedation Score) will be recorded at 30mins, 1hour, 2hour, 6hour, 12hour and 24hour post-op. Time of first rescue analgesic request when VAS score â‰¥4 will be recorded. Any episode of nausea, vomiting, dizziness in the first 24hours post-op will be recorded
