Inguinal Herniotomy

Purpose. To improve outcomes of congenital inguinal hernia treatment in children by improving a technique of extracorporal herniorrhaphy and by ligature guide modification. Outcomes after surgeries performed with different techniques were assessed by the level of postoperative pain and by the quality of life. Material and methods. Outcomes were analyzed in 60 children operated on for inguinal hernia with 3 different approaches: Duhamel, LASSO, LOD . The intensity of postoperative pain syndrome was assessed 4 hours after surgery and on the next postoperative day. The quality of life was assessed in 24 patients out of 60 on the next postoperative day. Results. The analysis on distribution to normality for postoperative pain did not reveal any statistical differences on sex, age and diagnosis. Boys (average age 69.6 - 84 months) prevailed. In 4 hours after the surgery, patients who had laparoscopic intervention had less number of scores in comparison to those who had open herniorrhaphy. There were no difference in laparoscopic groups. On the next postoperative day, pain syndrome in all groups was about the same. The quality of life in patients differed only by their physical status and by the total number of scores; and these parameters were higher in LOD group (32.8 scores versus 89.4 scores). Conclusion. A modified LOD technique improves the quality of life in operated patients. Four hours after laparoscopic herniorrhaphy, a pain syndrome is less pronounced.

Open Inguinal Hernia Repair

Abstract Aim Evidence about factors influencing quality of life after inguinal hernia surgery is scarce. This study aimed to identify predictors of low Quality of Life (QoL) after open inguinal hernia repair, to guide practice and inform patients at high risk. Material and Methods Prospective multicentric cohort study including consecutive patients undergoing elective open inguinal hernia repair in Portuguese hospitals (October-December 2019). The primary outcome was Quality of Life at 3 months after surgery, using the EuraHS-QoL score (higher score correlates with lower QoL). Low QoL was defined as the higher EuraHS-QoL score tertile and multivariate logistic regression was used to identify predictors. Results 893 patients were included from 33 hospitals. The majority were men (89.9% [800/891]), had unilateral hernias 88.7% (774/872) and the most common surgical technique was Lichtenstein’s repair (52.9% [472/893]). The median QoL score was 24 (IQR 10-40) before surgery and 2 (IQR 0-10) at 3 months after surgery, showing significant improvement (p < 0.001). After adjustment, low QoL at 3 months was associated with low preoperative QoL (OR 1.76, 95% CI 1.21-2.57, p = 0.003), non-absorbable mesh fixation (OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.12-2.41, p = 0.011), severe immediate postoperative pain (OR 2.90, 95% CI 1.66-5.11, p < 0.001) and minor postoperative complications (OR 2.23, 95% CI 1.30-3.84, p = 0.004). Conclusions This study supports the use of the EuraHS-QoL score preoperatively to inform consent. Although significant improvement in QoL is expected after surgery, high scores before surgery are associated with low postoperative QoL. Caution should be taken with non-absorbable mesh fixation and immediate postoperative pain control should be optimised.

Introduction.Coccygodynia is a multidisciplinary disease which is diffi cult to treat. It seriously limits the ability to work and signifi cantly affects the quality of life of patients. The study of somatic dysfunctions in patients with coccygodynia and the analysis of the results of osteopathic treatment of such patients makes it possible to justify the necessity of osteopathic correction of coccygodynia.Goal of the study— to determine the structure of the leading somatic dysfunctions in patients with coccygodynia and to study the effectiveness of osteopathic treatment of this pathology.Materials and methods.The study involved 44 patients from 25 to 65 years old, randomly divided into two groups. The main group of 24 people (20 women and 4 men) received osteopathic treatment, in accordance with the identifi ed leading somatic dysfunctions. Patients of the control group (16 women and 4 men) were treated locally with soft manual techniques (the treatment area was limited by the pelvic region). In order to assess the results of the treatment, we examined the intensity of the pain syndrome and the psycho-emotional state of patients. The severity of the pain syndrome was assessed in accordance with the visual analogue scale (VAS). The psycho-emotional state (with physical and mental components) was assessed with the help of the SF-36 quality of life questionnaire.Results.Somatic dysfunctions typical for patients with coccygodynia have been identifi ed. Osteopathic treatment has proven to be more effective in comparison with local manual therapy of coccygodynia both in early periods and in 3 months after the end of the treatment course.Conclusion.Osteopathic treatment of post-traumatic coccygodynia is effective, and can be recommended for treatment of such patients.

Цель исследования - изучение особенностей обмена гистамина при хронической тазовой боли у пациенток с наружным генитальным эндометриозом. Методика. В сыворотке крови 100 пациенток методом высокоточного (в нг/мл) иммуноферментного твердофазного анализа определяли концентрацию гистамина. Использованы реактивы «Histamine ЕLISA», аппарат BAE-1000 Гистамин (Labor Diagnostika Nord - LDN, Германия). Оценка выраженности болевого синдрома осуществлялась по шкале ВАШ, оценка качества жизни - на основании опросника для оценки качества жизни при эндометриозе (EHR-30), оценка тревожности - опросника Спилбергера-Ханина. Результаты. Показано статистически значимое повышение уровня гистамина у пациенток с высокой интенсивностью болевого синдрома. Женщины с наружным генитальным эндометриозом, сопровождающимся интенсивным болевым синдромом в 100% случаев обнаруживали высокие уровни ситуативной и личностной тревожности, тогда как, лишь у 40% женщин (n = 16) контрольной группы выявлен умеренный уровень тревожности. Депрессивные расстройства выявлены у 58,3% женщин с хронической тазовой болью (n = 35), из них основную часть (n = 20) составили женщины с выраженной степенью болевого синдрома по ВАШ. Заключение. Психоэмоциональное состояние женщин с тазовой болью, ассоциированной с наружным генитальным эндометриозом, характеризуется высокими уровнями депрессивных и тревожных расстройств, значительным снижением уровня качества жизни. Выявлена прямая связь между интенсивностью болевого синдрома и уровнем гистамина в периферической крови пациенток с наружным генитальным эндометриозом. Objective. To study features of histamine metabolism in patients with chronic pelvic pain associated with external genital endometriosis. Methods. For quantitative assessment of histamine level in peripheral blood was taken from 100 patients which than was centrifuged. In blood serum histamine concentration was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method with reagents «Histamine ЕLISA» on the machine BAE-1000 Histamine (Labor Diagnostika Nord - LDN, Hermany). A pain syndrome was assessed by Visual Analog Scale (VAS), quality of life assessment - by Endometriosis Health Profile Questionnaire (EHR-30), level of anxiety was determined by Spielberger-Khanin questionnaire. The results. Showed statistically higher histamine level in patients with severe pain according to VAS. After assessment of results obtained from Spielberger-Khanin questionnaire 100% experimental group’s women with external genital endometriosis (n = 60) were noted to be have high level of state and trait anxiety, then 40% women of control group (n = 16) have moderate level of anxiety. The incidence of depression in women with chronic pelvic pain was 58.3% (n = 35) and the main part (n = 20) were women with severe stage of pelvic pain according to VAS. Conclusions. Psycho emotional condition of women with external genital endometriosis associated pelvic pain characterized by higher depression and anxiety levels, with significant decrease quality of life. Direct relationship also was found between pain syndrome intensity and histamine level in peripheral blood in patients with external genital endometriosis.

Abstract Introduction The outcomes of oral health conditions and therapy for those conditions are described by the term “oral health-related quality of life.” Oral health-related quality of life is recognized by the World Health Organization as an important part of the Global Oral Health Program. The study aims to compare the impact of three root canal preparation systems on patients’ quality of life and correlate postoperative pain with the impact on the quality of life. Materials and Methods A survey was performed in which 90 patients were randomly assigned to three groups based on the root canal preparation system: (1) ProTaper Gold (Dentsply, Tulsa Dental Specialties, Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States), (2) Neoendo flex (Neoendo, India),and (3) Hyflex EDM/CM (Coltene Whaledent) that included 30 participants in each group. Data collection included the implementation of a demographic data questionnaire, Oral Health Impact Profile 14 (quality of life), and visual analogue scale(pain). The questionnaire was given after root canal treatment in the first 24 hours. The data obtained were statistically analyzed. Results No significant differences were found in the quality of life among study groups. Group 1 demonstrated a highly significant difference in the postoperative pain with p value of 2.67. Conclusion Within the limitations of the present study, Protaper Gold showed a highly significant difference in postoperative pain when compared with other file systems. No significant differences were found in the quality of life among the study groups.

AbstractPain is common but often underrecognized after stroke. Poststroke pain (PSP) hinders recovery, impairs quality of life, and is associated with the psychological state of patients with stroke. The most common subtypes of PSP include central PSP, complex regional pain syndrome, shoulder pain, spasticity-related pain, and headache. The pathophysiologies of these PSP subtypes are not yet clearly understood, and PSP is refractory to conventional treatment in many patients. However, recent studies have proposed potential pathophysiologies of PSP subtypes, which may help prioritize therapies that target specific mechanisms.
