However, there is a need to assess the extent of pain control and side effects between the two. The objective of the study was to evaluate and compare intraoperative hemodynamic parameters, and postoperative pain control with a secondary objective to determine the postoperative nausea vomiting, and patient satisfaction levels postlaparoscopic surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methodology:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Eighty patients with ASA physical statuses 1 and 2 who were scheduled for laparoscopic procedures, ranging in age from 20 to 70, participated in the study. They were categorized into opioid group (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 40) and opioid sparing group (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 40). Participants in the opioid group provided general anesthesia with fentanyl and participants in the opioid-sparing group received general anesthesia without fentanyl but got an infusion after receiving a loading dose of dexmedetomidine. Assessing pain scores and hemodynamic parameters were the primary objective while postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and patient satisfaction were the secondary objective.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure intraoperative hemodynamic parameters were comparable, with the exception of the heart rate, which was considerably greater in the opioid-sparing group at baseline, at 6 h, and 24 h (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.001).
