Improving Patient Care

Summary Introduction/objective: fast-tract surgery (FTS) has been rapidly embraced by surgeons as a mechanism for improving patient care and driving down complications and costs. The aim of this study was to determine if any improvement in outcomes occurred after FTS protocol for selective double portazygous disconnection with preserving vagus (SDPDPV) compared with non-FTS postoperative care. Methods: patients eligible for SDPDPV in the period January 2012-April 2014 were randomly selected for the FTS group or non-FTS group. A designed protocol was used in the FTS group with emphasis on an interdisciplinary approach. The non-FTS group was treated using previously established standard procedures. The number of postoperative complications, time of functional recovery and duration of hospital stay were recorded. Results: patients in the FTS group (n=59) and non-FTS group (n=57) did not differ in terms of preoperative data and operative details (p>0.05). The FTS procedure led to significantly better control and faster restoration of gastrointestinal functions, food tolerance, rehabilitation and hospital discharge (p<0.05). Postoperative complications, including nausea/vomiting, severe ascites, wound infection, urinary tract infection and pulmonary infection were all significantly lower in the FTS group (p<0.05). According to the postoperative morbidity classification used by Clavien, overall complications and grade I complications were both significantly lower in the FTS group compared with the non-FTS group (p<0.05). Conclusion: adopting the FTS protocol helped to recover gastrointestinal functions, to reduce frequency of postoperative complications and to reduce hospital stay. The FTS strategy is safe and effective in improving postoperative outcomes.

In order to explore the postoperative complications of laparoscopic adhesive release in the treatment of intestinal obstruction, 70 patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction (IO) who visited Banan District People’s Hospital on March 1, 2017 and received surgical treatment on June 30, 2019 were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into an experimental group (EG) and control group (CG) using random number table, 35 cases in each group. The EG accepted laparoscopic adhesion release, while the CG accepted laparotomy. The time spent during the operation, intraoperative blood loss (IBL), intestinal injury rate and intestinal resection rate, postoperative anal exhaust (PAE) time, hospital stay, feeding time and concurrent symptoms were recorded and compared between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression (MLR) model was adopted for the correlation analysis between symptoms after laparoscopic surgery (LS) and basic characteristics of patients and intraoperative information. It was found that the time of LS, IBL, PAE time, hospital stay and feeding time of the EG are greatly lower than that of the CG (P < 0.05). The number of cases of intestinal injury and intestinal resection in the EG was lower than that in the CG. The incidence of intestinal fistula, pulmonary infection, intestinal paralysis, incision infection, renal dysfunction and malnutrition in the EG was also lower than that in the CG. The regression coefficients of concurrent symptoms of LS and operative time and IBL were 0.376 and 0.343, respectively, showing a significant positive correlation (P < 0.05), which indicated that compared with traditional laparotomy, laparoscopic technique can effectively reduce the occurrence of complicated intestinal fistula, pulmonary infection, intestinal paralysis, incision infection, renal dysfunction, malnutrition, and so on. At the same time, ligation and frequent replacement of surgical instruments should be avoided as far as possible during the operation, and the occurrence of concurrent symptoms can be effectively decreased by reducing the operation time, IBL, and postoperative recovery time of patients with IO.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of different pancreaticojejunostomy techniques in the treatment of pancreaticoduodenectomy and investigate the applicability of pancreaticojejunostomy without pancreatic duct stenting. Methods From January 2012 to December 2015, 87 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were randomly assigned to either Group A (duct-to-mucosa anastomosis with pancreatic duct stenting, n = 43) or Group B (pancreas–jejunum end-to-side anastomosis without stenting (n = 44). The operative duration of pancreaticojejunostomy, postoperative hospital stay, and incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two methods. Results The operative duration of pancreaticojejunostomy without use of the pancreatic duct stent was significantly shorter in Group B than in Group A (t = 7.137). The postoperative hospital stay was significantly shorter in Group B than in Group A (t = 2.408). The differences in the incidence of postoperative complications such as pancreatic fistula, abdominal bleeding, abdominal infection and delayed gastric emptying were not significantly different between the two groups (χ2 = 0.181, 0.322, 0.603, and 0.001, respectively). Conclusion Pancreaticoduodenectomy without pancreatic duct stenting is safe and reliable and can reduce the operative time and hospital stay. No significant differences were observed in the incidence of postoperative complications.

Demographic Features

Background: Intestinal anastomosis is most commonly performed surgical procedure both in emergency and elective settings therefore its leak and disruption is a common cause of post-operative morbidity and mortility. Gut anastomosis heals by the same mechanism as that of wound healing. The submucosa, is the strongest layer of gut wall therefore ideal anastomotic technique is the one which includes apposition and approximation of this layer. Aim:The outcome of comparative study of single layer continuous extra mucosal technique and single layer interrupted extra mucosal technique for the anastomosis of small bowel. Methods:This was a prospective study based on randomization and was carried out in surgery department of ANMMC&H, Gaya from 1 st March 2019 to 29th February 2020. Total Fifty patients were included in study requiring small intestine anastomosis and were divided in two groups based on randomization. Group Aincluded those patients in which the anastomosis performed by single layer continuous extra mucosal technique and Group B patients underwent single layer interrupted extramucosal technique for creation of anastomosis, Group Aincluded 24 patients (n=24) and Group B 26 patients (n=26) . The demographic features, time taken to create anastomosis , postoperative complications , number of deaths if any and hospital stay in days were recorded on a printed proforma and data analysis was done through computer soft ware SPSS 16. Results: Group Aand B were similar as for as the demographic features, postoperative complications and duration of hospital stay are concerned. 4.2% patients of Group A and 7.7% of Group B developed anastomotic dehiscence with non signicant p value. Mean time taken for creation of anastomosis was 10.04 minutes in continuous extra mucosal anastomosis group (Group A ) and 19.2 minutes in interrupted extra mucosal anastomosis [Group B ] (p=0.0001) Overall hospital mortality was 2%. Conclusion: Single layer continuous extra mucosal technique is as safe as interrupted extra mucosal anastomosis technique but can be performed in shorter time and can be a cost effective alternative for construction of bowel anastomosis.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the treatment of choice for symptomatic gall stones but controversy regarding the routine use of drainage after elective LC still exists. The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of post-procedural drainage versus no drainage after simple laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The postoperative complications were also evaluated in both groups after the LC procedure.Material and Methods: This Randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted in patients who underwent Laparoscopic cholecystectomy according to a pre-set inclusion criterion. Ninety-three patients were randomly assigned into group A (with drainage tube) and group B (without drainage tube) using sealed opaque envelopes containing computer‐generated random numbers. Primary (like duration of hospital stay, Postoperative pain) and secondary outcomes (like postoperative complications) were noted in both groups. Chi-square, Fischer exact test and Mann witney U test were applied as appropriate and statistical significance was established at P < .05.Results: The number of patients with hospital stay exceeding two days were more in group A (n=23; 51.1%) than B (n=13; 28.8%) (P < .05). Group A presented with more postoperative complications but differences between the two groups were statistically non-significant. Both Groups experienced a high level of pain at six hours of surgery followed by progressive decrease in severity at 24 and 48 hours, respectively (P=.06).Conclusions: Post-procedural drain placement after laparoscopic cholecystectomy has no advantages as there is no significant difference in post-operative complications and duration of hospital stay in drainage versus no drainage groups.

INTRODUCTION: Over the years, surgeons tried the placement of mesh at different locations like On-lay, Under-lay, Sub-lay and pre-peritoneal, retroperitoneal intraperitoneal, Inter-muscular, etc. with each procedure having its advantages and disadvantages. Commonly Onlay and sub lay mesh repairs are done. Though the literature says, sub lay procedures have fewer complications and a high success rate. However, in a few studies, the ideal position for mesh repair appears to be retro muscular, where the force of abdominal pressure holds the mesh against deep surfaces of muscles. In this study, a comparison of both Onlay and retro rectus procedures with regards to the duration of surgery, postoperative complications like seroma, wound infection, wound dehiscence, and also the period of postoperative stay in the hospital. The aim of the study is To compare 'Onlay' versus 'retro rectus' mesh repair in inuencing the outcome in incisional hernia with regards to Duration of surgery, Postoperative complications like seroma formation, wound infection, Postoperative stay, Recurrences. PATIENTS AND METHODOLOGY: Type of Study: A Prospective comparative study Study Setting: Department of general surgery, Narayana Medical College & Hospital, Nellore.Study Period: November 2018 to September 2020 Study Sample: 50 cases, divided into two groups by random allocation technique. Groups A and B with 25 patients in each group. RESULTS: The mean age of cases in Group A is 40.48 years. The mean age of patients in Group B is 44.08 years. Youngest was 31 years and 36 years in group A and group B, respectively, and the eldest was 51 years and 53 years in group A and group B, respectively. In Group A, 11 were male, and 14 were female, and in Group B, 11 were male, and 14 were female. The male to female ratio in the study was 1:1.27. The mean Operative Time in Group A was 1.93 Hrs, and that in Group B was 2.98Hrs. Nine patients (36%) in group A and one patient (4%) in group B had seroma formation. Eight patients (32%) in group A and one patient (4%) in group B had a wound infection. The mean Hospital Stay in Group A was 5.44 Days, and Group B was 4.88 days. No short-term recurrences were noted in either of the two groups when followed for six months. CONCLUSION : Retrorectus mesh repair is an excellent alternative to Onlay mesh repair that may apply to incisional hernia. The mesh-related overall complication rate like seroma wound infections and hospital stay is less than Onlay mesh repair.

Abstract Background To assess patients undergoing radical cystectomy using enhanced recovery protocol and standard protocol in terms of intraoperative and postoperative outcomes and complications. Results All operative and postoperative complications were recorded. In group B, time to normal bowel activity ranged from 1 to 4 days, and the mean was 1.8 days (± 1.02), while it ranged from 1 to 5 days, and the mean was 3.17 days (± 1.14) in group A which was statistically significant (p value < 0.001). The length of hospital stay in group B ranged from 6 to 50 days, the mean was 13.16 days (± 7.83), while it ranged from 8 to 35 days, and the mean was 14.71 days (± 5.78) in group A which was statistically significant (p value = 0.033). Postoperative mortality was similar in both groups. Conclusion In patients undergoing radical cystectomy, enhanced recovery protocol is considered as a safe procedure and not associated with any increase in intraoperative and postoperative complications compared to standard protocol. The length of hospital stay and time to return to full diet are reduced.

AbstractThe laparoscopic approach is considered as standard practice in patients with body-tail pancreatic neoplasms. However, only a few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and propensity score matching (PSM) studies have been performed. Thus, additional studies are needed to obtain more robust evidence. This is a single-centre propensity score-matched study including patients who underwent laparoscopic (LDP) and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) with splenectomy for pancreatic neoplasms. Demographic, intra, postoperative and oncological data were collected. The primary endpoint was the length of hospital stay. The secondary endpoints included the assessment of the operative findings, postoperative outcomes, oncological outcomes (only in the subset of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma-PDAC) and total costs. In total, 205 patients were analysed: 105 (51.2%) undergoing an open approach and 100 (48.8%) a laparoscopic approach. After PSM, two well-balanced groups of 75 patients were analysed and showed a shorter length of hospital stay (P = 0.001), a lower blood loss (P = 0.032), a reduced rate of postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) and decreased total costs (P = 0.050) after LDP with respect to ODP. Regarding the subset of patients with PDAC, 22 patients were analysed: they showed a significant shorter length of hospital stay (P = 0.050) and a reduction in postoperative morbidity (P < 0.001) after LDP with respect to ODP. Oncological outcomes were similar. LDP showed lower hospital stay and postoperative morbidity rate than ODP both in the entire population and in patients affected by PDAC. Total costs were reduced only in the entire population. Oncological outcomes were comparable in PDAC patients.
