Aim of the Work The investigators aim to compare lidocaine-based anesthesia versus conventional anesthesia in the presence of multimodal analgesia protocol in terms of early quality of recovery and analgesic efficacy. Objectives To compare quality of recovery using the Quality of recovery-15 (QoR-15) score between lidocaine-based anesthesia in relation to conventional anesthesia in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy. Hypothesis the investigators hypothesize that lidocaine-based regimen would be effective in reducing opioid use and provide superior quality of recovery compared to conventional opioid-routine anesthesia in emergency laparotomy.

: two syringes of lidocaine 10 mg/mL will be prepared. A 10-mL syringe (induction syringe) will be given during the induction of anesthesia and A 50 mL syringe (infusion syringe) will be used as continuous infusion.
A 10-mL syringe of 10 mcg/mL fentanyl (induction syringe) and a 50-mL syringe of saline (infusion syringe) will be prepared as placebo.
- Quality of recovery using the QoR-15 score 24 h after surgery.
\- Quality of recovery using the QoR-15 score 24 h after surgery. An 11-point numerical rating scale (for positive items, 0 = "none of the time" to 10 = "all of the time"; for negative items the scoring was reversed; maximum score 150).
Time frame: 24 hours
