Filter by:In this study the plan is to compare the circumcision performed with Alisklamp versus Dorsal Slit Sleeve method in terms of age, co-existing health conditions, surgery time, recovery period, tissue edema and bleeding, postoperative infection, wound healing, wound dehiscence, skin tunnel, and overall complications.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate patient reported outcomes and tolerability of scrotal and penile urologic procedures under the administration of minimal conscious sedation. This will be assessed at 4-6 weeks post-procedure where patients will be followed up with a questionnaire assessing how well patients tolerated the procedure and if patients would opt for conscious sedation again in a similar, future procedure. The investigators will secondarily be assessing the associated cost savings as compared to having these procedures performed under general anesthesia at a tertiary care hospital.
Background: Circumcision is the most commonly performed surgical procedure done among the pediatric age group worldwide and is considered to be one of the oldest operations done. Circumcision should be performed properly with safe surgical techniques, with the least possibility of complications. Objective: To compare bipolar electrosurgery versus thermocautery in the circumcision of infants under combined general and local anesthesia. Patients and Methods: This prospective randomized comparative study was carried out on 110 infants who were candidates for elective circumcision under combined general and local anesthesia. Infants were randomly allocated into two equal groups (55 infants each); in group A, circumcised by bone-cutting forceps with cutting foreskin using a scalpel and achievement of hemostasis using bipolar electrosurgery, and in group B, circumcised by bone-cutting forceps with cutting foreskin and achievement of hemostasis using thermocautery.
Caudal block (CB), a regional anesthesia technique, is the most commonly used neuraxial block method for postoperative pain control in sub-umbilical surgeries in children. However, peripheral nerve blocks have been reported to be preferred in recent years in the literature since they provide longer and safer analgesia. One of these blocks, the erector spina plane (ESP) block, has been shown to provide effective postoperative analgesia when administered from the lumbar level for sacral and lower abdominal surgeries and urogenital surgeries in pediatric patients.
Comparison of Povidone iodine and Hypochlorous acid used as a Preoperative Antiseptic in Newborn Circumcision abstract Aim: Circumcision is one of the most common surgical procedures in all age groups. Before the circumcision procedure, asepsis is provided with a surface disinfectant. Various methods can be used for this process. Povidone iodine, which has been used for years during the transition from traditional circumcision methods to surgical circumcision methods; tissue damage, allergic reactions and increase in pain level. For this reason, the investigators aimed to compare it with Hypochlorous acid (Crystalin), which is a less toxic and more physiological antiseptic solution. Material and Method: Newborns to be circumcised randomly were divided into two groups as Hypochlorosis group and Povidone iodine group. At the beginning of the circumcision procedure, a culture was taken in the form of a prepucial swab 1 minute after the cleaning of the local area and the inner surface of the prepuce. Then circumcision was performed. Culture results and complications were compared.
The first goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety between anxiolysis by multimedia-distraction with an IPAD versus anxiolysis by premedication with midazolam prior to the induction. Secondly to evaluate the need for midazolam-premedication in pediatric day-care patients induced by inhalational anesthesia.
The regional anesthesia methods of caudal epidural block (CEB) and dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB) play an important role in providing postoperative pain control in pediatric circumcision surgery. However, the short-term postoperative analgesic effect and the risk of block failure limit the use of DPNB, a peripheral nerve block.

1) To determine when the majority of male infants are being circumcised at 3 hospitals across the US (Brooke Army Medical Center, Naval Medical Center San Diego, and Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. 2) To assess the breastfeeding patterns of circumcised male infants at the above-mentioned academic medical centers. Specifically, to determine if these babies are breastfeeding at the time of hospital discharge, at their newborn visit, their 2-week visit, and all subsequent well visits up until 6 months of age. 3) To determine if there is a significant relationship between the timing of newborn circumcision and breastfeeding initiation, establishment, and maintenance in the first 6 months of life. We hypothesize that the timing of circumcision will not be significantly associated with frequency of breastfeeding among mother-infant dyads during the initial months of life.
Opioids are an important component of post-operative pain management among children, but are often prescribed in excess and rarely disposed of appropriately. The lack of prompt and proper opioid disposal after recovery from surgery is contributing to the opioid crisis in Ohio by placing children at risk of accidental ingestion of opioids remaining in the home and allowing for unused opioids to be diverted for non-medical use. The investigators propose to reduce the burden of the opioid crisis in Ohio by testing a strategy to increase proper opioid disposal by families of children undergoing outpatient surgery. The investigators will test the impact of a novel opioid disposal mechanism, the Deterra® drug deactivation system, after pediatric surgical operations. This system deactivates pills, liquids, or patches, allowing for their disposal in the home garbage. The investigators propose to evaluate the effectiveness of providing Deterra® bags to families of children having surgery on their disposal of excess opioids. The investigators will perform a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the effectiveness of Deterra® to improve opioid disposal among families of children having outpatient surgery at Nationwide Children's Hospital.
