Evaluation of Closed-loop TIVA Propofol, Sufentanil and Ketamine Guided by BIS Monitor
Acute CholecystitisChronic CholecystitisThe purpose of this study is to compare a closed-loop intravenous anesthetic using Bispectral Index as a feedback loop and a controller based on reinforcement learning to titrate dose and intravenous anesthetic that is manually controlled or a standard volatile anesthetic agent titrated by the anesthesiologist to determine improvement in the following parameters as compared to controls: time to discharge from the Post Anesthesia Care Unit, post-operative nausea and vomiting, pain scores and sedation scores.
Is an Antibiotic Prescription Required After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Cholecystitis; AcuteWith CholelithiasisThe need for antibiotics to reduce surgical site infection after cholecystectomy for acute calculous cholecystitis is still controversial. The researchers aimed to investigate the effect of antibiotics prescribed on surgical site infection when discharged to patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute calculous cholecystitis.

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy or Conservative Treatment in the Acute Cholecystitis of Elderly Patients...
CholecystitisAcuteCholecystectomy is the only curative treatment for gallstone disease of acute calculous cholecystitis.The purpose of this study is to find the most effective treatment (laparoscopic cholecystectomy vs. conservative) for elderly patients with acute cholecystitis. Therefore a randomized multi-centre study of 200 elderly patients suffering from acute cholecystitis is performed with additional cohort of all elderly patients with acute cholecystitis in the study hospitals during study period.
GB34 Acupuncture in Acute Cholecystitis
Acute CholecystitisThe purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the effects of GB34 acupuncture, performed as adjuvant to standard medical treatment, on clinical response and laboratory parameters of patients with a diagnosis of acute cholecystitis.
Necessity of Preoperative Empirical Antibiotic Use in Acute Cholecystitis
CholecystitisAcuteIn this study, the investigators compared the surgical outcomes according to the type of antibiotics before surgery in patients who did not have evidence of systemic infection during acute cholecystitis. The primary purpose of the study was to determine the type of preoperative antibiotics in patients who were scheduled for cholecystectomy, because of the mild (grade I) or moderate (grade 2) acute inflammatory gallbladder disease without gallbladder perforation. The investigators compared the incidence of postoperative complications according to the types of preoperative antibiotics(the first-generation vs second-generation cephalosporin). The secondary purpose of the study was to confirm the clinical efficacy of first-generation cephalosporins following the use of empirical antibiotics. And the investigators compare with postoperative pain, postoperative hospital stay, re-hospitalization, and need for additional treatment. In addition, the investigators compare the postoperative complications, such as atelectasis and postoperative ileus.
Gallbladder Cryoablation in High-Risk Patients
Gallbladder DiseasesCholecystitis5 moreBenign gallbladder disease, including acute cholecystitis, chronic cholecystitis, biliary dyskinesia, and biliary colic, is very common, with over 300,000 surgical cholecystectomies performed per year in the US. Unfortunately, complication rates in elderly patients or patients with many comorbidities are high. These patients are often managed with percutaneous tube drainage of the gallbladder (percutaneous cholecystostomy). The recurrence rate of calculous cholecystitis after cholecystostomy tube removal is as high as 35% at 1 year. These patients are thus faced with permanent cholecystostomy tube drainage, high-risk surgery, or cholecystostomy tube removal and risk of repeat cholecystitis. Gallbladder cryoablation is an alternative to surgical cholecystectomy which is performed percutaneously and does not require general anesthesia. Published evidence on the outcomes of gallbladder cryoablation is however limited at this point in time. The purpose of the proposed study is to follow the outcomes of high-risk patients who undergo gallbladder cryoablation.

Acute Cholecystitis: Early Versus Delayed Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy; Randomized Prospective Study...
Acute CholecystitisThe best management of the acute cholecystitis is to do laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The hypothesis is that to do it as an early intervention after patient admission is better than delayed cholecystectomy regarding the hospital stay, interval for antibiotic, the easiness of the operative maneuver reflected by operative time, conversion and intraoperative complications.
