Pain is often severe after laparoscopic surgeries which can be a incisional pain, visceral pain or shoulder pain and the postoperative pain relief is often provided by NSAIDs, paracetamol and opioids. The opioid epidemic and the opioid side effects have led perioperative physicians to find a way of decreasing the use of opioids. Increasing the use of regional anaesthesia techniques is one of the measures to this end. This review focusses on the various opioid free anaesthesia techniques that can be used in laparoscopic surgeries. Constipation, respiratory depression, urine retention, and postoperative nausea and vomiting are only a few of the side effects that are frequently linked to the administration of opioids.
