Comparison of the effects of oxycodone versus fentanyl on airway reflex to tracheal extubation and postoperative pain during anesthesia recovery after laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A double-blind, randomized clinical consort study
Conclusion:
Oxycodone treatment before tracheal extubation reduced cough response and was as effective as fentanyl treatment for improving extubation quality. Furthermore, single boluses of fentanyl and oxycodone showed equal effectiveness in attenuating acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
