Filter by:Day case laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be made with conventional diathermy hook starting at triangle of Calot´s. 5mm suction irrigation blunt dissection starting from the gallbladder fundus is another option. The aim is to test the hypothesis that with 5mm suction irrigation blunt dissection technique a better same day discharge and a shorter operative time can be achieved.
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.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) was defined by the American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses (ASPAN) as nausea and/or vomiting in the first 24 hours after surgery and is among the most common complications after pain in patients undergoing surgery. PONV is divided into three as early, late, and delayed. Nausea-vomiting developing within 2-6 hours after surgery is classified as early, nausea-vomiting developing within 6-24 hours after surgery is classified as delayed, and nausea and/or vomiting developing within the first 24 hours after surgery are classified as delayed PONV. PONV increases the length of stay in the recovery room, delays starting oral intake, causes fluid and electrolyte imbalance, and causes pain, dehydration, delayed wound healing, decreased patient comfort, prolonged hospitalization, and increased cost. Therefore, the prevention and management of nausea and vomiting in the perioperative period in surgical patients are very important.
Investigators want to assess the safety and efficacy of using abdominal drainage with not using any drainage, by estimating different outcomes after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for different reasons. Patients are seen at the Accident and Emergency Department or in the surgical wards at Aleppo University Hospital (AUH) over 12 months period.
Adequate analgesic regimen is one of the most important key elements of Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. The cornerstone of analgesia is multimodal analgesia combining local anesthetic (LA) techniques and trying to avoid parenteral opioids and their side effects. Subcostal approach to Anterior quadratus lumborum block (SAQLB), compared to other variants of quadratus lumborum blocks (QLBs), was associated with wider and longer sensory blockade, and provided somatic as well as visceral analgesia of the abdomen. The newly emerging, relatively easy erector spinae plane block (ESPB) provided excellent analgesia across a variety of surgical procedures and reduced opioid consumption. This motivated us to do this study to assess and compare the analgesic efficacy of ESPB versus SAQLB following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
In this study, the postoperative analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided modified thoracoabdominal nerves blocks through perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) and oblique subcostal transversus abdominis plane block(OSTAP) will be searched in patients recruiting for laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and the two groups will be compared in terms postoperative opioid consumption. The primary aim of this study is to compare the effects of ultrasound-guided (M-TAPA) and OSTAP blocks on opioid consumption after LC surgery. It is hypothesized that M-TAPA will reduce opioid consumption of the patients more than the OSTAP block.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed minimally invasive surgical procedures for the treatment of symptomatic cholelithiasis Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has clear benefits when compared with open surgery, but post-operative pain is still a common complaint after it The patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy suffers from severe post-operative pain, it can prolong hospital stay and lead to increased morbidity Post-operative laparoscopic cholecystectomy pain can be relieved by some methods pre-emptive analgesic regimens containing ketamine, regional anesthesia techniques including paravertebral block Paravertebral Block is a regional anesthetic and analgesic technique which may offer comparable analgesic effectiveness with minimal side effects Paravertebral Block has been used a lot in the last two decades, several studies show its efficacy in, thoracoscopic surgery and laparoscopic cholecystectomy .Paravertebral block is the technique of injecting local anesthetic adjacent to the thoracic vertebra close to where the spinal nerves emerge from the intervertebral foramina, resulting in ipsilateral somatic and sympathetic nerve blockade in multiple dermatomes above and below the site of injection . Bupivacaine is a local anesthetic that is capable of producing prolonged high quality analgesia in the postoperative period It is shown that paravertebral block using bupivacaine significantly reduces pain score Many drugs have been used as adjuvants to local anesthetic in peripheral nerve block in order to augment its analgesic effect and prolong the duration of the block such as opioids and magnesium sulfate Many studies have reported safety and efficacy of adding magnesium to local anesthetics in various regional anesthetic procedures, such as intrathecal, epidural, caudal, brachial plexus blocks and intravenous regional anesthesia. Magnesium play a major role in central nociceptive transmission, modulation and sensitization of acute and chronic pain states due to its antagonistic effect on N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors .
For symptomatic gall bladder disorders (cholelithiasis and cholecystitis), laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has been considered as the gold standard treatment. However, these minimally invasive technique is associated with acute moderate pain during the 24 hours postoperative, which is routinely managed using opioids. The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block has been used as part of a multimodal analgesia strategy. Besides, Wang et al found that TAP block is more effective than a conventional pain control, but not significatively different from another local incisional pain control that is port site infiltration.So, the aim of this study, is to compare the analgesic efficacy and safety of trocar-site infiltration with ropivacaine with ultrasound-guided TAP block following laparoscopic cholecystectomy when used as part of multimodal analgesia.
A faster emergence from general anesthesia has a double medico-economic impact by reducing the risks of complications and optimizing the performance of surgical units. No drug has been retained for its ability to actively accelerate anesthetic emergence by antagonizing hypnotics. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of caffeine on the time to emerge from sevoflurane anesthesia for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries cause moderate/severe pain and thus can result in shallow breathing, atelectasis and increased opioid consumption in the early postoperative period which in turn cause a longer hospital stay. Erector spinae plane block has been shown to decrease lower thoracic pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries. This study aims to investigate the effect of erector spinae plane block on opioid consumption and diaphragma movement after laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries.
