Elastic Abdominal Binder Following Gynecologic Cancer Surgery

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Surgery is the primary treatment for gynecologic malignancies. The surgical approach provides opportunities for removal of the affected organs and complete assessment of extent of cancer spread. However, the procedures are often associated with significant morbidity. This is especially true with open laparotomy, the most frequently employed approach in developing countries. Delayed functional recovery influenced by pain and immobilization are important contributing factors for increased morbidity. Elastic abdominal binder, a wide elastic belt that is wore around the patient's abdomen to support surgical incision after surgery, has been employed by clinicians for pain relief, wound complications prevention, improved pulmonary function, and stabilization. Benefits of the abdominal binder use in this patient population have not been properly examined.

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of postoperative elastic abdominal binder use on recovery by comparing pain scores and mobility function (through the 6-minute walk test [6MWT]) in postoperative gynecologic cancer patients who use versus do not use the elastic abdominal binder to support incisional site.
