Summary

Abdominal surgeries are major surgical procedures that are performed at any teaching hospital. Pain control is major concern in the intra-operative as well as post-operative period in these patients. Optimal pain control in post-operative period is directly related to patient's recovery, shortens the patients' hospital stay and overall burden on health facilities. Inadequate pain control may affect quality of life and increases patient's morbidity and mortality. Different modalities for pain control are used in post-operative period. Opioids are mainstay of treatment in post-operative period but historically are associated with significant side effect profile like dependence, nausea, vomiting, respiratory depression, constipation and many others. Dexmedetomidine is centrally acting α-2 adrenoceptor agonist.
