Multimodal Opioid-Free Anesthesia in RIRS
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Dexmedetomidine-Ketamine Opioid-Free Anesthesia: Opioid-free anesthesia protocol using dexmedetomidine infusion and ketamine administration without intraoperative opioid use.
Fentanyl-Based Anesthesia: Conventional opioid-based anesthesia protocol using fentanyl during surgery.
Study summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a dexmedetomidine-ketamine based opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) protocol can provide effective analgesia compared to conventional fentanyl-based anesthesia in adult patients undergoing elective retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does opioid-free anesthesia reduce postoperative opioid consumption compared to fentanyl-based anesthesia? Does opioid-free anesthesia result in lower postoperative pain scores?
Researchers will compare the dexmedetomidine-ketamine group to the fentanyl-based anesthesia group to see if opioid-free anesthesia reduces opioid requirements and improves recovery quality.
Participants will receive either a dexmedetomidine-ketamine based OFA protocol or conventional fentanyl-based anesthesia during surgery and will be monitored for pain, opioid consumption, and recovery outcomes postoperatively.

Primary outcome measure(s)
- Postoperative Pain Intensity — Within 60 minutes postoperatively
