Synergistic Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine on Anesthetic Induction and Emergence in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy or Gynecological Surgery

This study aims to evaluate the effect of intravenous lidocaine on consciousness changes during anesthesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy or gynecologic surgery. A total of 150 patients will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: a single-dose lidocaine group, a continuous-infusion group, or a placebo group. All patients will receive standard anesthesia care, and the study will monitor brain activity using EEG-based PSi values to measure anesthesia induction time, recovery time, and changes in consciousness. The goal is to determine whether lidocaine can reduce the amount of anesthetic used, shorten the time to fall asleep, and promote faster awakening after surgery. The results may help improve anesthesia safety and enhance recovery in surgical patients.
