Comparison of Intravenous Lidocaine vs Ketamine in Colorectal Surgery

Summary

Patients undergoing open colorectal surgery were randomly divided into two groups: Intravenous Lidocaine (IV-Lido) vs Intravenous Ketamine (IV-Keta). For the IV-Lido group, patients received a loading dose of Lidocaine than a continuous infusion over twenty-four hours. For the IV-Keta goup, patients received a loading dose of Ketamine than a continuous injection of Ketamine over twenty-four hours. Plasma concentrations of Interleukin-6(IL-6) were measured preoperatively before anesthetic induction and at twenty-four hour post operatively.
