Filter by:The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between sarcopenia and visceral adiposity in participants with and without cholecystectomy. In this way, the long-term effects of cholecystectomy operations, which are commonly performed in the society and thought to be harmless, will be evaluated.
The aim of this study is to record the radial pressure pulse(RPP) of the patients with cholecystitis compared preoperative and postoperative pulse changes in an attempt to determine the relationship between cholecystitis and pulse.
İn recent years abdominal wall blocks are widely used for to reduce intraoperative anesthetic recuirements and postoperative analgesia.Quadratus lumborum blocks are one of the abdominal wall blocks to used at laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Conventionally adjuvants used to improve and prolonged the effect of periferic nerve, spinal and abdominal blocks.İn this study investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of adjuvants at quatratus lumborum block at patient underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of different bed-head angles given to patients lying in the supine position in an intensive care unit on the haemodynamic parameters of central venous pressure, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate and peripheral oxygen saturation. Methods: The study was conducted with 50 intensive care patients aged 18 and over in a general surgery intensive care unit in Turkey. With each patient in the supine position, the bed-head was raised to an angle of 0, 20, 30 and 45 degrees without a pillow, and the haemodynamic parameters of central venous pressure, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate and peripheral oxygen saturation were recorded after 0 and 10 minutes.
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.
Objective: to examine the effect of the medium intensity coughing technique during subcutaneous low molecular weight heparin injection on pain severity and individual satisfaction in general surgery patients. Method: a prospective, quasi-experimental study included 100 patients who had prescribed a subcutaneous low molecular weight heparin injection once in 24 hours. Each patient received two injections by the same researcher using standard injection technique with medium intensity coughing technique and only standard injection technique.
Pain experienced before and after surgery in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy adversely affects physiological parameters and sleep quality. This randomized controlled study was conducted to examine the effects of preoperative and postoperative inhalation lavender and geranium essential oil on patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy on pain, sleep, and physiological parameters. The study was completed with 3 groups and 150 people, namely the geranium oil group (n=50), lavender oil group (n=50) and control group (n=50). The ethics committee approval, informed consent of the individuals and the institutional permission were obtained. In the study, data were collected using the patient identification form, Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale and visual analog scale. Chi-square test,repeated measures one-way analysis of variance, and Spearman correlation analysis tests were used to assess the data. In the comparisons, the value of p<0.05 was accepted as significant.
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.
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.
