Acupuncture for Prevention of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy...
CholecystitisAcute7 moreThe purpose is to find out if intraoperative acupuncture performed by needling PC 6 and LI4 point bilaterally, and Yin Tang point will help reduce the incidence postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy when added to a prophylactic regimen consisting of ondansetron and dexamethasone. The hypothesis is that the addition of this acupuncture treatment to ondansetron and dexamethasone given for prophylaxis will help reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy when compared to patients receiving ondansetron and dexamethasone without acupuncture.

Comparison of Icg's Route of Administration During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Laparoscopic; CholecystectomyCholelithiasis; Bile Duct7 moreThe aim of the trial is to compare the routes of administration of indocyanine green (ICG) during laparoscopic cholocystectomy.
Effect of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy on Risk of Metabolic Syndrome
CholelithiasisMetabolic SyndromeProspective cohort study. POPULATION: patients with gallstone disease qualified for laparoscopic cholecystectomy INTERVENTION: patients undergoing cholecystectomy for gallstones COMPARISON: gallstone disease without surgery in an observation period OUTCOME: metabolic syndrome symptoms evaluated in 3 months period The main inclusion criteria is cholelithiasis confirmed by ultrasound examination in patients between 18-75 years old. The main exclusion criteria are metabolic syndrome, diabetes, thyroid diseases, pancreatic diseases, serious abdominal surgeries in the past, pregnancy, and lactation. Participants who qualified for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 3 months are included in the investigation group. Those not having cholecystectomy planned in the upcoming three months for any reason (no consent for surgery, long term) are included in the control group. The intervention is to assess all metabolic syndrome criteria (blood pressure, glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, abdominal obesity) before and three months after surgery. The endpoint is to evaluate if the risk of metabolic syndrome after cholecystectomy is higher than in patients with gallstones.
Comparison of Anaesthesia Requirement for Ventilation With Endotracheal Tube Versus Proseal Laryngeal...
CholelithiasesCholecystolithiasisEndotracheal tube (ETT) is the gold standard conduit for providing controlled ventilation during general anaesthesia (GA). however, the supra-glottic airway (SGA) devices in particular the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) and its variants have become a reliable alternative to ETT for carrying out controlled ventilation. Of the several variants of LMA available today, the proseal LMA (PLMA) is preferred for controlled ventilation. The various advantages of LMA includes, a lower incidence of postoperative sore throat and superior haemodynamic profile during surgery. However, one aspect of providing anaesthesia with LMA compared to ETT is the ability of LMA to maintain equivalent depth of anaesthesia with lower anaesthetic requirement, is quiet intriguing and evidence to this regard is very limited. By measuring the anaesthesia requirement using a robust computerised delivery system such as the closed loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS) we can establish for sure the anaesthesia required for maintaining intraoperative mechanical ventilation with the use of these two (ETT and PLMA) airway management devices. This randomised controlled study aims to calculate the anaesthesia requirement as determined by the total amount of propofol consumed for maintaining anaesthesia with ETT versus PLMA

Cholecystectomy vs EUS-guided GBD With Stone Removal
CholelithiasisIn this new era of less invasive procedures, the indications for endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided gallbladder drainage (GBD) are rapidly expanding. Nowadays, the standard treatment for uncomplicated cholelithiasis (symptomatic patients not requiring hospital admission or non-surgically managed during one or more hospital admissions) is elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. To avoid the complications, difficulties and disadvantages of cholecystectomy, the investigators proposed a single-center study to determine the safety and effectiveness of EUS-guided GBD with electrocautery-enhanced lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, EEUU) with stone removal in patients with cholelithiasis, in comparison with the gold standard treatment, the elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
