Patient satisfaction score
11-point numeric rating scale ranging from '0' representing one extreme (e.g. "extremely dissatisfied") to '10' representing the other extreme (e.g. "extremely satisfied")
Postoperative nausea and vomiting
4-scales scoring (none; mild; moderate; severe)
Opioid-related adverse effect

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aimed to evaluate the additive effect of acetaminophen on postoperative pain control in patients receiving nefopam and fentanyl-based patient-controlled analgesia.
Participants undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy will be randomly assigned to treatment group or control group. After end of surgery, acetaminophen or normal saline (placebo) will be administered intravenously depending on the group assigned.
