Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of perioperative intravenous S ketamine reduces the amount and degree of postoperative pain

Furthermore the purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of perioperative intravenous S ketamine effects cognitive function in the early postoperative period
Detailed Description: The mechanism of development of postoperative pain is complex Central and peripheral sensitization are playing an important role and this can lead to postoperative hypersensitization Several studies have shown that S ketamine can be effective to reduce sensitization and postoperative pain Ketamine 2-O-chlorophenyl-2-methylamino cyclohexanone is a N-Methyl-D-Aspartat NMDA receptor antagonist S ketamine has a four times stronger affinity to the NMDA receptor compared to R - ketamine The duration of action for S ketamine is shorter than R - ketamine and it has fewer side-effects

The purpose of this study is to compare the analgetic effect of pregabalin and placebo used in the perioperative period

The hypothesis is that perioperative intravenous S ketamine gives significant better analgesia than placebo without effecting cognitive function

The study is including patients undergoing hemorrhoidectomy
