Cholecystitis in Villavicencio Hospitals

Biliary Tract Diseases

Background: Acute cholecystitis is a frequent cause of visits to the emergency ward. The complications of delays in attention and surgical therapy are substantial and should be considered to prevent them timely. Objective: The study aims to evaluate the assistance provided to patients for cholecystitis in Villavicencio hospitals. Methodology: A retrospective cross-sectional trial will be performed. The source of information will be the surgical database of hospitals at Villavicencio from 2019 to 2022. The records selected will be exported to an Excel spreadsheet for debugging and analysis. The central distribution and dispersion of numerical variables will be analyzed, as frequency and proportion of categorical variables with the software Prism 10.01.1 for Mac iOS. Chi-square and U-Mann & Whitney tests will compare variables according to the data type. A p<0.05 will be defined as statistically significant. Expected results: the researchers hope to define the frequency of hospital discharges due to acute cholecystitis, the type of procedure performed, complications, and outcomes. Conclusions: The research is feasible because the necessary information is available for evaluation, and it is helpful for the institutions and the region.

Endoscopic Nasogallbladder Drainage Versus Gallbladder Stenting Before Cholecystecomy

CholecystitisAcute1 more

Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the current standard therapy for acute cholecystitis, but temporary decompression of the gallbladder (GB) through percutaneous or endoscopic route can be required to alleviate inflammatory process and reach an appropriate time for elective surgery in patients with high operative risk or marked local inflammation or organ dysfunction. Also preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is often needed because common bile duct (CBD) stone is accompanied in patients with acute cholecystitis at reported rate from 7-20%. Two-steps approach of percutaneous transhepatic GB drainage (PTGBD) followed by ERCP or vice versa has been performed for the treatment of acute cholecystitis with concomitant CBD stone who are not suitable for urgent cholecystectomy. However single-step drainage of CBD and GB through ERCP and endoscopic transpapillary GB drainage (ETGD) using nasocystic tube or plastic stent has alternatively been attempted in patients who have contraindications for PTGBD. In clinical practice, many endoscopists have hesitated to perform ETGD because of its relatively low technical success rate and specific concern about post-ERCP adverse event but it minimizes catheter keeping duration, and provides effective clinical improvement via physiologic route. Currently there are scarce data on if ETGD using nasocystic tube or plastic stent are comparable in terms of clinical efficacy and safety.

Prolonged Versus Delayed Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Acute Cholecystitis

Acute Cholecystitis

Gallbladder stone affects 10-15% of the adult population, and about 15-25% of these patients presented with acute cholecystitis (AC). Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is considered the treatment of choice for patients with AC, and recent studies suggest that early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) is preferable. However, the optimal time for ELC in AC is still controversial. Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) was advised for patients presented within 72 hours, while conservative treatment and planned delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) after six weeks was recommended for patients presented after 72 hours. Surgeons almost always encounter patients with AC lasting more than 72 hours and these patients consistently refuse conservative treatment and postpone for the DLC.

Study Comparing Tigecycline Versus Ceftriaxone Sodium Plus Metronidazole in Complicated Intra-abdominal...

AppendicitisCholecystitis3 more

This is a phase 3b/4 randomized, open-label, comparative, multicenter study of the safety and efficacy of tigecycline to ceftriaxone sodium plus metronidazole in hospitalized subjects with cIAI (Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infection). Subjects with clinical signs and symptoms of cIAI will be included for enrollment. Subjects will be stratified at randomization for Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation scale (APACHE II) score < 10 and > 10. Subjects will be followed for efficacy through the test-of-cure assessment. Safety evaluations will occur through the treatment and post-treatment periods and continue through resolution or stability of the adverse event(s).
