Fig 1 Total amounts of i.m. oxycodone each patient received during the study period. Group RF without, Group RFC with clonidine. There is a statistically significant difference between the groups (MW-U, P=0.027), with smaller i.m. oxycodone requirements in Group RFC.

Times of predetermined interviews: 18:00 and 24:00 on the day of surgery, 06:00 and 12:00 on the first postoperative day. Symbols are mean (sd). With regard to MAP, there is a statistically significant difference between the groups (RM anova, F=10.5, P<0.002).
