Clinical Trial Summary

There have been no studies exploring the efficacy of incision support using an elastic abdominal binder after laparoscopy to date. The investigators performed therefore a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of post-laparoscopic abdominal binder use on enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in patients with gynecologic disease.


Clinical Trial Description

An abdominal elastic binder (girdles, trusses, abdominal belts, longuette, etc.) is a wide belt that surrounds the abdomen and supports the incision . Abdominal binder is routinely used after open surgery and Cesarean section, because it has been reported, according to a recent systematic review, to facilitate enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) such as pain relief, reduced risk of seroma formation, improved respiratory function, and assisted physical function using additional support to the lower abdominal musculature.

However, the routine use of abdominal binder after laparoscopy has been challenged due to a potential risk of postoperative pulmonary complications and deep venous thrombosis due to increased intra-abdominal pressure. Also, abdominal binders after laparoscopy have been criticized for being uncomfortable and hot to wear and for impinging the breast line in females. Therefore, some laparoscopists prefer the use of abdominal binder in patients undergoing laparoscopy, while other laparoscopists did not. However, there have been no studies exploring the efficacy of incision support using an elastic abdominal binder after laparoscopy to date. The investigators performed therefore a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of post-laparoscopic abdominal binder use on ERAS in patients with gynecologic disease. ;
