An independent investigator who will not be involved in the study will instruct the patients preoperatively about the use of patient controlled analgesia and visual analogue scale to assess the severity of postoperative pain (0 mm for no pain and100 mm for worst imaginable pain). Anaesthetic

General anesthesia will be induced by bolus administration of propofol (1.5-2.5 mg/kg IV), and fentanyl (2-3 µg/kg IV). Neuromuscular blockade will be achieved with bolus administration of rocuronium, vecuronium, or succinylcholine. Once the endotracheal tube is secured in place, the patient will be
