Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Dexketoprofen Trometamol (arvelles as the commercial name)is the S(+) enantiomer of ketoprofen, which is a COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitor arylpropyonic acid. It is a newly developed, centrally acting NSAID with potency similar to that of mu-opioid agonists. In a number of studies in different pain models, it has been proven to have a good analgesic efficacy and tolerability profile after oral administration. Therefore arvelles might be suitable for preventing this distressing side-effect. However, no report has examined as to whether arvelles pretreatment reduces the withdrawal movement caused by rocuronium injection.
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of pretreatment with oral arvelles with plasebo tablets, without tourniquet, for the prevention of withdrawal response from rocuronium injection. We will administer an oral capsule of 25 mg single dose 30 minutes before induction

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 289305 0
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of pretreatment with oral arvelles with plasebo tablets, without tourniquet, for the prevention of withdrawal response from rocuronium injection.While rocuronium was being injected, withdrawal movement was graded by an investigator, who was blinded to patient group assigned as follows: grade 0 = no response, grade 1 = movement/withdrawal at the wrist only, grade 2 = movement/withdrawal involving the arm only (elbow/shoulder), and grade 3 =generalized response with movement/withdrawal in more than one extremity, cough, or breath-holding
Timepoint [1] 289305 0
While rocuronium was being injected, withdrawal movement was graded by an investigator.
