Clinical Trial Summary

This study investigates the prevalence of previous abdominal surgery in a cohort of patients operated for bowel obstruction and analyzes the causes of obstruction discovered at surgery.


Clinical Trial Description

Postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions are a common cause of small bowel obstruction. The extent of adhesions has been assigned to the magnitude of previous surgery. In a county hospital, with a catchment population of 120 000 inhabitants, records of operations performed for bowel obstruction over a period of 70 months were retrieved. Codes for bowel obstruction according to an International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) will include: Intestinal adhesion with obstruction, Other and unspecified intestinal obstruction, Intestinal obstruction and Peritoneal adhesions. Amount of adhesions will be calculated in relation to previous surgery. ;
