View clinical trials related to Cholecystitis, Acute.
Filter by:Acute cholecystitis (AC) is the second most frequent pathology in Surgical Emergencies; laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard treatment, but not all patients are fit for surgery. Percutaneous Cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative to LC but has high comorbidity. There is no protocol in our institution for Non-Surgical Treatment (NST). This study aims to analyse the complications of non-surgical treatment and a new local management algorithm
Acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC) is the second most frequent surgical condition in emergency departments. The recommended treatment is surgical treatment (ST) and the accepted mortality is <1%, but in severe and/or fragile patients is higher. Despite the Tokyo Guidelines, there no consensus on who is the unfit patient for ST. A recent study has identified 4 risk factors that predicts the mortality in a 92% of patients (ACME) and could help to develop new guidelines in ACC. The aim of this study is this validation of the new simplified scoring system for mortality in ACC.
41-year-old previously healthy patient presented with right upper quadrant abdominal pain. Pain started two days prior to presentation when an abdominal ultrasound in a peripheral hospital showed a 10 mm gallbladder stone with normal laboratory tests; however, her pain was resolved on analgesics. Now the pain was persistent and associated with vomiting and laboratory tests showed elevated bilirubin. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiography was done that showed inflamed gallbladder but with no stones and normal cholangiography. Day one post-operation, while the pain resolved, labs showed elevated liver function tests and hepatitis workup showed acute HAV infection attributing her presentation to HAV induced AAC.
This is an observational study comparing perioperative quantitative EEG parameters between the conventional propofol/remifentanil and remimazolam/remifentanil. We aim to compare and analyze the differences in EEG patterns during the postoperative recovery in a group that underwent remimazolam and remifentanil-based total intravenous anesthesia(TIVA), in comparison to propofol and remifentanil-based TIVA
The goal of this observational study is to compare the use of Airseal versus a standard insufflation, in children who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, between January 2021 and December 2022. The main questions it aims to answer are: - amount of analgesics consumed postoperatively - mean digital pain scale Data are directly extracted from patients medical files. The investigators will compare the Airseal group (A group) to the Standard insufflation group (S group) to see if the A group consumes significatively less analgesics and are less painful than the S group.
The aim of this manuscript is to illustrate a new method permitting safe cholecystectomy in terms of complications with respect to the common bile duct (CBD). The core of this new technique is identification of the continuity of the cystic duct with the infundibulum. The cystic duct can be identified between the inner gallbladder wall and inflamed outer wall. In the last 2 years, 3 patients have been treated with the reported technique without complications. Among the various cholecystectomy procedures, this is a new approach that ensures the safety of the structures of Calot's triangle while providing the advantages gained from total removal of the gallbladder.
Gallbladder stone affects 10-15% of the adult population, and about 15-25% of these patients presented with acute cholecystitis (AC). Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is considered the treatment of choice for patients with AC, and recent studies suggest that early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) is preferable. However, the optimal time for ELC in AC is still controversial. Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) was advised for patients presented within 72 hours, while conservative treatment and planned delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) after six weeks was recommended for patients presented after 72 hours. Surgeons almost always encounter patients with AC lasting more than 72 hours and these patients consistently refuse conservative treatment and postpone for the DLC.
Study is designed to investigate whether the history of ERCP is associated with subtotal cholecystectomy rates in patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations with the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis.
The goal of this non-inferiority observational study is to assess the diagnostic performance of low-dose CT with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) in adult participants with acute abdominal conditions. The main research question is: • Can low-dose CT with DLIR achieve the same diagnostic performance as standard CT for the diagnosis of acute abdominal conditions. Participants will be examined with an additional low-dose CT directly after the standard CT. Participant will be their own controls.
Percutaneous cholecystostomy is used to reduce the complications and mortality associated with surgery in patients with high surgical risk in acute cholecystitis. Although this method generally acts as a bridge treatment for interval cholecystectomy in patients, interval cholecystectomy is not performed in every patient after percutaneous cholecystostomy. The aim of this study was to determine the recurrence rate of patients who did not have interval cholecystectomy after treatment with percutaneous cholecystostomy and to investigate the factors that may affect the recurrence.
