Filter by:In the current era, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the treatment of choice for symptomatic gallstone disease. The aim of this study is to find out the prevalence of open cholecystectomy among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a tertiary care center.
This study was planned to determine the effect of hot application applied to patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy on shoulder pain and physiological parameters (blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, pain score, oxygen saturation. The hypothesis of the study: To see the effect of hot application and its effect on physiological parameters after hot application in individuals who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The population of the study will consist of patients who were admitted to the OMU SUVAM General Surgery Service and underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The sample of the study will consist of individuals who have undergone 84 laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations, who agreed to participate in the study, and who met the criteria for inclusion in the study, between the specified dates. The sample size of the study was determined in the G*Power 3.1.9.4 program by considering Cohen's standard effect sizes. Effect size was calculated based on 0.25, Type I error 0.05, Type II error 0.20 (80% power) and 38 patients were calculated for each group, but considering data loss, it was aimed to reach 10% more, with 42 patients for each group and 84 patients in total. Which group the individuals in the sample group would be in was determined by randomization, and a randomization table was created over two groups. In the study, data will be collected using the Patient Information Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Physiological Parameter Form. The patients in the intervention group will be treated with hot water bags twice, for 20 minutes in the morning and 20 minutes in the evening, to the shoulder area, starting four hours after the operation, until the patient is discharged. When the individuals in the control group have pain, analgesic drug treatment will be applied at the request of the physician, and no other intervention will be applied.
The aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus fentanyl analgesia in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomies
The Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) defines informed consent (IC) as a voluntary process where important elements include details of the procedure, complications, and proposed alternatives. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) was the most common laparoscopic procedure cited in 423 medical-legal cases reported by CMPA in 2017, with 29% of cases citing issues in pre-operative care including inadequacy of the consent process. The investigators recently demonstrated that technology can help improve the IC process in an outpatient setting by conducting a prospective randomized controlled trial to examine the effects of adding a digital educational platform (DEP) module to a standard verbal consent (SVC) for an elective laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedure. The investigators demonstrated a significant improvement in immediate post-consent knowledge of the risks, benefits and alternatives in patients who viewed the DEP module with equivalent patient satisfaction as compared to a SVC. With the proposed study the investigators plan to gather evidence to support implementing a digital education platform for emergent surgical procedures performed in an in-patient setting. The investigators propose to conduct a randomized controlled trial to explore the benefits of adding a DEP module to a SVC for patients presenting with acute cholecystitis requiring an emergent LC as an in-patient. Participants will be randomly allocated (1:1) to either a control group (SVC) or an intervention group (SVC + DEP). Primary outcome of interest will be immediate post-consent knowledge of the risks, benefits, alternatives and expected outcomes for a LC. Secondary outcomes will include satisfaction with the consent discussion and delayed retention of knowledge of the risks, benefits, alternatives and expected outcomes for a LC . The investigators hypothesize that completion of the DEP module in addition to SVC will result in superior immediate and delayed post-consent knowledge of risks and benefits of LC with equivalent patients satisfaction as compared to SVC alone. The results of this study will provide evidence supporting the addition of DEP to SVC for urgent and emergent surgical procedures.
Laparoscopic surgery is frequently used today for abdominal region operations. Laparoscopy has become the preferred treatment for cholecystectomy. Patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy suffer from acute postoperative pain despite the multimodal analgesic regimen. For this type of surgery, many different field blocks have been used for postoperative analgesia.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of the addition of nefopam to a multimodal analgesic regimen consisting of ketoprofen and paracetamol during sevoflurane- dexmedetomidine-based anesthesia on postoperative morphine requirements in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The aim of the trial is to study the efficacy of bilateral Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) in managing perioperative pain in patients who undergo elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy
A multi-center retrospective chart review of short-term outcomes associated with robotic-assisted cholecystectomies performed during regular hours and after-hours.
Surgical coaching, defined as a constructive relationship that provides objective feedback to individuals about a broad range of factors influencing operative performance, is a key strategy for integrating adult learning theory into the traditionally didactic arena of surgical education. It is gaining momentum as an area of potential growth and innovation, and may become a more meaningful method of ongoing professional development for practicing surgeons. Effective coaching interactions encourage discussion, provide feedback, affirm positive beliefs and challenge pre-existing assumptions. The effectiveness and uptake of coaching interventions in surgery can be influenced by the identity of the coach, and cultural or individual surgeon attitudes. Surgical coaching has been linked to improvements in technical and procedural skills in both simulated and clinical environments. In 2015, a systematic review of surgical coaching showed a positive impact of surgical coaching interventions on learners' perceptions and attitudes, their technical and nontechnical skills, and their performance measures. The investigators propose to conduct a multicenter randomized controlled trial of structured remote surgical coaching (SRSC) versus conventional surgical training for laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed by surgery residents at three institutions, in Canada and Australia, to not only provide additional evidence in support of validity and generalizability of a structured surgical coaching intervention for surgery trainees, but also to demonstrate improvement in accuracy of self-assessment of operative performance and the feasibility of remote coaching.
Magnesium sulfate (MS) and dexmedetomidine have already demonstrated the ability to reduce intra and postoperative consumption of anesthetics and analgesics, among others advantages, such as blood pressure control and intraoperative bleeding. The MS has also been shown to be useful in pre-eclampsia and eclampsia control, pulmonary hypertension, asthma, cardiac arrhythmias and pheochromocytoma). Despite these advantages in the use of these important adjuncts, there is a concern about the quality and awakening time of the patients who use them. The purpose of this trial is to compare the time and quality of awakening in patients submitted to general anesthesia and receiving MS or dexmedetomidine as adjuncts in the intraoperative analgesia. The main objective of this trial is to compare the quality and the awakening time in patients receiving MS or dexmedetomidine. The secondary objective is the comparison of postoperative analgesia in the postoperative hospitalization period. Hypothesis: Our hypothesis is that patients present a faster awakening when receive MS as an analgesic adjunct, when compared to patients who receive dexmedetomidine. Drawing: this is a prospective, controlled, covert trial with random distribution for noninferiority trialing.
