Summary
The current study aim is to compare between the opioids morphine, fentanyl and methadone in
terms of efficacy and side effects profile when administered epidurally for pain management
after laparotomies. Intravenous morphine will also be used. The outcomes of that method will
be compared to those obtained using epidurally administered opioids, as this is another
commonly used postoperative pain relief method.
