Summary

The purpose of this study on laparoscopic hysterectomy is to investigate postoperative pain. Patients are allocated to either deep neuromuscular blockade and low intra-abdominal pressure (8 mmHg) or moderate neuromuscular blockade and usual intra-abdominal pressure (12 mmHg). Primary hypothesis: Deep neuromuscular blockade and low intra-abdominal pressure (8 mmHg) reduces postoperative pain compared to moderate neuromuscular blockade and intra-abdominal pressure (12 mmHg).
