Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Dexamethasone has been recognized as an antiemetic agent after surgeries, and the combination of dexamethasone and tramadol remained stable in solution up to 5 days. In addition, i.v. basal infusion of tramadol is a certified technique in postoperative pain management. We purposed that combined administration of dexamethasone and tramadol adjunct to i.v. morphine is an effective way in treating postoperative pain.
