Incentive Spirometry and Upper Abdominal Laparoscopic Surgery

CholecystitisPerforated Duodenal Ulcer7 more

To compare the effects of volume-oriented versus flow-oriented incentive spirometry on pulmonary function tests and functional capacity in patients of upper abdominal laparoscopic surgery. Previous studies were designed to target only spirometer without focusing on its different types and their effects. This study covers the research gap and therefore is designed to observe effects of different types of spirometer on pulmonary function of patients undergoing upper abdominal laparoscopic surgery.

The Use of Fluorescent Imaging for Intraoperative Cholangiogram During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy...

CholelithiasisCholecystitis2 more

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a fluorescent die and a special infrared camera can assist with the identification of the important structures during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This finding may assist surgeons to perform laparoscopic cholecystectomy in less time and in a safer fashion than standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

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

AppendicitisCholecystitis4 more

This is a study of the safety and efficacy of tigecycline to ceftriaxone sodium plus metronidazole in hospitalized subjects with cIAI. 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).

Acute Cholecystitis - Early Laparoscopic Surgery Versus Antibiotic Therapy and Delayed Elective...

Acute Cholecystitis

Acute cholecystitis is frequent in the elderly, or in patients with gall stones. Most cases of severe or recurrent cholecystitis need surgery as final therapy. Today, the performed procedure in most cases for cholecystectomy in the western world is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Only in some cases an open surgery has to be performed. Unclear is, what time point is best, concerning outcome and morbidity of the patient, immediate surgery or initial conservative therapy using antibiotics and symptomatic therapy with cholecystectomy later on. Today the performed procedure is mainly chosen by the fact, what doctor sees the patient first, surgeon or gastroenterologist. This study is performed to evaluate if one therapy is superior.

Is it Safe to do Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Acute Cholecystitis up to Seven Days?

Acute Cholecystitis

Objectives: To compare the safety of early (≤72h) versus late (>72h-7days) laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) from symptom onset for acute cholecystitis (AC). Background: As LC within 72h of symptom onset was considered the optimum time, sometimes there was a delay in diagnosis and management. So, we raised the question of safety and feasibility of performing LC to patients with AC who failed to have LC within 72h of acute attack. Patients and Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, clinical trial; carried out on 120 patients presented with AC between September 2017 and April 2019. Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups assigned to LC; group E: within 72h of symptom onset, and group L: after 72h up to seven days from symptom onset.

Ondansetron Effect on Pain Relief After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Cholecystitis

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is an easy procedure characterized by its minimal invasiveness, less post-operative pain and early recovery when compared to the open conventional cholecystectomy. However, patients who have undergone LC still complain of postoperative pain. It has been reported that ondansetron produces numbness when injected under the skin and has local anesthetic effect that is 15 times more potent than lidocaine the most widely used local anesthetic and probably explains its antiemetic action. It possesses anti-inflammatory, anesthetic, and analgesic properties by its multifaceted actions as a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, a Na channel blocker, and a mu-opioid agonist which may have a potential role in decreasing pain. The study aimed to demonstrate the effectiveness of IP administration of ondansetron on pain management post LC.

Is it Fair to Use Antibiotics After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for the Patients With Acutely Inflamed...

Acute Cholecystitis

During the laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis, most surgeons routinely use the postoperative antibiotics after surgery. However, there is no consensus regarding the actual need of postoperative antibiotics in these cases and the use of postoperative antibiotics remains controversial. Investigators will compare the surgical outcomes after laparoscopic cholecystectomy to the patients who has no evidence of systemic infection, according to the usage of postoperative antibiotics or not. The investigators expect that the routine use of postoperative antibiotics after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis gallbladder will have no effects on the postoperative morbidity.

Piperacllin Versus Placebo in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Acute Cholecystitis

CholecystitisAcute

The benefit from antibiotic prophylaxis in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis is insufficiently known. The aim of the present double-blind randomized controlled is to compare piperacilin with placebo in patients undergoing cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis with anamnesis not exceeding 5 days. Altogether 100 patients are intended to be included. Primary endpoint is biliary contamination. Secondary endpoints are postoperative hospital stay, health-related quality of life, pain perception, postoperative markers of inflammatory response, surgical site infections, infectious complications other than surgical site infections, health economy and relationship between symptom anamnesis and bile contamination.
