Filter by:A randomized controlled trial was done on 127 women planned for TLH, and divided into two groups; group A includes women that underwent conventional TLH, and group B includes women that underwent TLH with prior uterine artery ligation at its origin. Both grouped were compared regarding the blood loss, operation time, intraoperative complications and post-operative follow-up.
This is an extension study of a prospective, multicenter, randomized, single-blind trial whose purpose is to compare mesh-related complications and effectiveness of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair in women undergoing minimally-invasive total hysterectomy and sacrocolpopexy (SCP) with a light-weight polypropylene mesh (Upsylon™ y-mesh) using permanent (polytetrafluoroethylene, Gore-Tex) versus delayed absorbable monofilament (polydioxanone, PDS) suture for vaginal mesh attachment through at least 3 years after surgery.
The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of an active voiding trial compared to a passive voiding trial on time to discharge following a planned same day discharge laparoscopic hysterectomy. The investigators hypothesize that performing an active voiding trial will assess urinary function and lead to a reduction in length of stay.
Multimodal pain management program is needed to control severe pain after abdominal hysterectomy which is considered as one of the major abdominal surgeries. Opioids (which are the analgesic of choice) have many adverse effects such as sedation, nausea, and vomiting. Hence, different methods are needed to control pain and decrease opioid consumption and its side effects. Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block blocks the sensory afferent nerves run between the abdominal muscles and controls postoperative incisional pain. Blanco was the first who described the quadratus lumborum block (QLB). Somatic pain after upper and lower abdominal surgery can be controlled by QLB. QLB can be performed for all generations (adult, pediatrics, and pregnant). QLB is considered to be an easy technique to learn as it is easy to get the key sonoanatomic markers for QLB. The novice can learn this block after only a few performance of the procedure. QLB produces effective postoperative analgesia after abdominal surgery, laparoscopic surgery, anterior abdominal wall surgery, and hip and femur surgery. The analgesic effect of QLB covers 24-48 h. While some authors inserted catheter for continuous infusion of the local anesthetic drug to extend the duration of postoperative analgesia, others added dexamethasone to local anesthetic to extend the effect of local anesthetic drugs. Ultrasound (US)-guided Ilioinguinal and Iliohypogastric nerve and TAP block have been established as analgesic adjuncts for post hernia repair pain management, under general anaesthesia, neuraxial, MAC and infiltration techniques. US-guided technique of blocking Ilioinguinal and Iliohypogastric nerves have higher success rate compared to conventional technique. TAP block provides analgesia to the parietal peritoneum and skin of the abdomen in infra-umbilical surgeries. Few cadaveric studies showed good analgesic effect in the region between T10 and L1 following a single posterior TAP injection.
One of the fundamental surgical steps in patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy is the closure of the uterine artery, this vessel provides the greatest blood supply to the uterus. This step can be done in two ways: the surgeon can choose to interrupt the blood flow by closing the uterine artery in its last part, close to the uterus, or the surgeon can develop the anatomical spaces around the uterus into the deep pelvis, closing it to its origin, maintaining a minimally invasive approach in both cases. Scientific research has tried to establish whether one of the two modalities is the best in reducing intraoperative blood loss and possible complications, but currently there is not enough evidence to recommend an approach rather than another. The investigator has therefore decided to evaluate the results at the end of a laparoscopic hysterectomy in a scientifically rigorous manner.
The study is a prospective, double-blinded, placebo-controlled multi-center trial to measure if postoperative pain and the amount of narcotics used are reduced by a clinically significant amount in women undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy receiving a continuous infusion of intraperitoneal (IP) local anesthetic (LA) or a continuous infusion of LA combined with an NSAID compared with a control group who receives only 0.9% normal saline.
With the limited evidence that lower pneumoperitoneum pressures improve postoperative pain in laparoscopic or robotic hysterectomy for benign indications, we would like to determine if we can both further validate this idea but also show that it has minimal effect on physician satisfaction performing the surgery.
A clinical research study designed to assess the HominisTM Surgical System in gynecological procedures.
In this study, we will assess the efficacy of dinoprostone in minimizing blood loss during hysterectomy when used as a single preoperative dose via the vaginal route. The reduction of blood flow may be due to the combined effect of myometrial contraction and vasoconstrictive effect
Phase 1 (started in July 2019): Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI), Fear-Avoidance Components Scale (FACS), pain-pressure threshold are factors associated with chronic post-hysterectomy pain (CPHP), but a complete understanding on the development of CPHP is lacking. The study aims to identify clinically-relevant factors for CPHP that can be reliably assessed preoperatively. === Phase 2 (anticipated start May 2022): In addition to above factors, the association between heart rate variability (HRV) parameters, anxiety level, anticipated pain, and anticipated analgesia requirement with significant postoperative pain and CPHP will be investigated.
