Filter by:Treatment options for haemorrhoid can be classified mainly into lifestyle modification, medical and procedural. Laser haemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) is a minimally invasive procedure which is effective in treating grade 2-4 haemorrhoids. However, one of the significant complications is post-operative bleeding. Some surgeons supplemented haemorrhoidal artery ligation (HAL) to help minimize post-operative bleeding, however, its effectiveness has not been formally evaluated. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of supplementation of HAL to LHP in reducing the incidence of post-operative bleeding. It was hypothesize that supplementation of HAL to LHP is not effective in reducing the post-operative bleeding incidence and is unnecessary. The study was designed as a double-blind, randomized controlled trial involving 78 patients who underwent laser haemorrhoidoplasty in Universiti Malaya Medical Centre, Malaysia from November 2016 to October 2018. The study compared the post-operative bleeding incidence of laser haemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) only (n=38) versus laser haemorrhoidoplasty with haemorrhoidal artery ligation (LHP + HAL) (n=38). Assessment of bleeding using verbal rating scale (VRS) and Clavien-Dindo score is made at post-operative 24 hours, one week and six weeks. Pain score, the presence of perianal swelling and operation time were documented.
Thrombosis of the external hemorrhoids (TEH) is one of the most frequent complain during pregnancy, particularly during the third trimester. The paucity of the medical literature on this topic has recently been underlined in the European guidelines for hemorrhoid treatment . The aim of this prospective study is to compare the efficacy and safety of conservative versus surgical treatment of TEH in pregnant women
The primary objective of this study is to assess in real-life setting the effectiveness of conservative treatments on signs, symptoms and quality of life in patients consulting for hemorrhoids in acute phase of the disease
The target rate for outpatient surgery has been set by the Ministry of Health at 70% for 2020. To achieve this objective, this requires increasing the panel of eligible outpatient procedures to more mutilating surgeries and usually performed in conventional hospitalization. This switch from conventional hospitalization to an outpatient stay increases the risk of converting stays into unscheduled hospitalization. Postoperative pain is one of the main factors in converting outpatient stays. Poor control is associated with increased length of stay, and unscheduled consultations and readmissions. In addition, the increased time spent with severe pain during the first 24 hours postoperatively is a risk factor for chronicization. Proctology, and, in particular, hemorrhoidal surgery is the perfect example. Outpatient management of open pedicle hemorrhoidectomy is increasing year by year, but the rate of conversion to unscheduled hospitalizations remains high. Urine retention, postoperative hemorrhage and poor pain control are the main causes. Within the Paris Saint Joseph Hospital Group, hemorrhoidal surgery has the highest rate of conversions from hospitalization to proctology (8% in 2019), despite the implementation since 2015 of a dedicated, developed according to the current recommendations of the SNFCP. The pain after hemorrhoidal surgery is always severe in the absence of analgesics and appears upon arrival in the post-interventional monitoring room (SSPI). Despite the administration of analgesics or the implementation of locoregional analgesia techniques (pudendal block), moderate to severe pain is frequently observed in the post-intervention monitoring room. In the medical literature, there is little data evaluating the means of management of postoperative pain in this surgery, and even less the effect of the different associations. Retrospectively and, from the data collected in our information systems, we wish to assess the impact on the length of stay of the presence of moderate to severe pain in the IPSS after a two-way or tri-pedicle hemorrhoidal surgery open on our cohort of patients operated in outpatient surgery. Our hypothesis is that the presence of moderate to severe pain in PPSS increases the total length of stay, placing the patient at an increased risk of conversion. The purpose of our study is also to identify predictive factors (aggravating or protective) of the onset of moderate to severe pain immediately after surgery, in order to establish a strategy to limit its frequency.
Background: Hemorrhoid is one of the most common chronic anorectal diseases. The prevalence rate is about 44%. It occurs in adults aged 45-65 years. Hemorrhoidetomy resection is still the standard treatment for grade III and IV hemorrhoid. Urinary retention is one of the most common complications after hemorrhoid surgery, and the complications occur within 24 hours after surgery. The warm water sitz bath is a routine nursing care after hemorrhoid surgery in the clinic. The purpose is to provide moist heat of the perineum and anus to clean, promote healing and drainage, relieve pain, stimulate urination and promote relaxation. In contrast, all current studies, warm water sitz bath intervention time is the first day after surgery, the complications within 24 hours after surgery are not alleviated. Objective: The main purpose was to use experimental research methods to verify the effect of early warm water sitz bath on urinary retention after hemorrhoidectomy. The secondary objective was the effect of early warm water sitz bath on wound pain after hemorrhoidectomy. Methods: This study was a single-blind randomized trial in which subjects were randomly assigned to an experimental or control group with symptomatic stage III or IV end hemorrhoid who were admitted to the hospital for hemorrhoidectomy. The experimental group started the warm water bath 6 hours after the end of the operation, while the control group started the warm water sitz bath on the first day after the operation. The investigator assessed the amount of residual urine and wound pain index before and after each operation of the warm water sitz bath after surgery, and each subject was evaluated 8 times until 24 hours after surgery.
In this study, the researchers planned to compare the treatment results of patients undergoing rubber band ligation in addition to drug therapy in hemorrhagic internal hemorrhoids patients and those treated only with anti-hemorrhoidal drugs.
Symptomatic haemorrhoids, or piles, have significant effects on quality of life. The treatment for advanced disease is surgical excision (haemorrhoidectomy) which is extremely effective. However, pain following haemorrhoidectomy is known by all to be a miserable experience and current treatment is not very effective. We have formulated a new cream treatment which targets three theorised mechanisms of pain after haemorrhoidectomy. We will test the effectiveness of the treatments with a multi-centred randomised controlled factorial trial with four parallel double-blinded arms containing different combinations of the active agents. The outcomes include pain scores, amount of analgesia required and time to return to work. The results of our study could provide evidence of an effective treatment for post haemorrhoidectomy pain. The treatment may provide considerable benefit to patients undergoing this surgical procedure.
Patients undergoing Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy will be randomized to receive or not the pudendal nerve block after the spinal anesthesia.
Background: Hemorrhoidal disease is a common benign condition seen frequently in clinical settings. Rubber band ligation and sclerotherapy have proven to be the office-based procedures of choice in hemorrhoidal disease, with various studies reporting rubber band ligation as being more effective but also more painful and bleeding prone than sclerotherapy with liquid polidocanol. However, there are no studies comparing rubber band ligation and sclerotherapy with polidocanol foam, a new type of sclerosant agent that has already proved to be more effective and safer than liquid polidocanol in grade I hemorrhoidal disease. The present study was designed to establish the clinical effectiveness and safety of sclerotherapy with polidocanol foam compared with rubber band ligation. Methods: This randomized controlled trial includes patients with symptomatic hemorrhoidal disease grades I to III. The participants were randomly assigned (in a 1:1 ratio) to either rubber band ligation or sclerotherapy with polidocanol foam, stratified by grade of hemorrhoidal disease. During the intervention period the patients are submitted to one of the office-based procedures and, afterwards, in the follow-up period, evaluated every three months for a total period of one year. The efficacy outcomes include symptom resolution, number of treatment sessions needed to achieve therapeutic success and evolution of hemorrhoidal disease grade in the intervention period and, during follow-up, recurrence incidence. Primary safety outcomes include the occurrence of any complication related to the office-based procedures.
The investigators' aim is to assess if they can complete a study measuring the effect of local anaesthetic gel (Instillagel) on reducing pain experienced by patients undergoing a common treatment for haemorrhoids (piles). This treatment is called rubber band ligation and is commonly performed in the investigators'clinics.
