Summary

This study tested two anesthesia approaches for gastric sleeve surgery in 96 patients. One group received standard opioids, while the other also got ketamine. Researchers measured how much opioid pain medicine patients needed after surgery and their pain levels. The goal was to see if adding ketamine could reduce opioid use and side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ketamine
What this could lead to
If this approach works, it could point toward a way to reduce opioid use and improve pain control after gastric sleeve surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with 96 participants. Results may not apply to all patients or surgeries, and ketamine can have side effects like dizziness or confusion.
