Esmolol Versus Sufentanil on the Quality of Post-cholecystectomy Recovery Laparoscopic Anaesthesia With Orotracheal Intubation on an Outpatient Basis

There are 120,000 outpatient laparoscopic cholecystectomies with orotracheal intubation per year in France. Sufentanil is the most commonly used morphine during surgery in France, but morphines have harmful effects when administered for surgery.
