EARLY POSTOPERATIVE OUTCOMES OF LAPROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY WITH AND WITHOUT SUBHEPATIC DRAIN INSERTION.

摘要

Objectives: Compare the efficacy in terms of mean pain score and mean durationof hospital stay in patients of symptomatic cholilithiasis undergoing laproscopic cholecystectomywith and without subhepatic drain insertion. Study Design: Randomized control trial. Setting:Surgical Unit–III of Allied Hospital Faisalabad which is tertiary care unit. Duration of Study:20-02-2013 to 20-08-2013. Results: Out of 150 cases (75 cases in two groups), mean+sd wascalculated as 44.74+ 6.57 years, 80%(n=60) in Group-A and 82.66%(n=62) in Group-B werefemale, post- operative hospital stay was recorded which shows 3.16+0.463 in group-a and2.32+0.569 days in group-b and it shows statistically significant difference between the twogroups, similarly, on comparison of post-operative abdominal pain score at 24 hours in bothgroups 2.266+1.062 in Group-A and 1.8+0.90 in Group-B pain on vas was recorded at 24hours which shows significantly lower in Group-B patients by calculating p value as 0.002348.Conclusion: No subhepatic drain insertion after laproscopic cholecystectomy is better whencompared to those with subhepatic drain insertion in terms of mean pain score and meanduration of hospital stay in days post operatively.
