Restoration of Bowel Function After Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery: Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine


The aim of this study is to assess whether perioperative intravenous lidocaine has an impact
on the early postoperative physical activity recovery of patients scheduled for laparoscopic
colorectal resection.

The study focuses on patients with colorectal disease, which receive the laparoscopic
(assisted) surgical approach.

It is hypothesized that in those patients receiving perioperative and post-operative
intravenous lidocaine, bowel function recovery will be faster, probably as a result of a
significant opioid sparing, less pain and attenuated inflammatory response.
