LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY

This study aimed to find the best way to position patients when giving a specific type of pain-blocking injection after gallbladder removal surgery. Researchers compared giving the injection while patients were lying on their side, lying on their stomach, or sitting up. They meas…

This study tested whether a simple hot foot bath could help patients feel better after having their gallbladder removed. Researchers wanted to see if this easy, non-drug method could reduce pain and anxiety, and improve sleep and comfort levels. They compared patients who receive…

This study compared two types of anesthesia for people having their gallbladder removed. One method used strong painkillers (opioids), while the other used a combination of different drugs to avoid opioids. The goal was to see which approach led to less pain, nausea, and a smooth…

This study tested a new type of nerve block to see if it could better manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. Researchers gave 77 patients an ultrasound-guided injection of numbing medicine near their ribs before surgery. The goal was to see if this block reduced the …

This study tested whether a sedative drug called dexmedetomidine helps the stomach empty faster after keyhole gallbladder removal surgery. Researchers used ultrasound scans to measure stomach volume in 80 patients before and after their operation. The goal was to see if this drug…

This study tested a new way to manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery. Researchers compared a standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) against the same medicine combined with another drug called dexmedetomidine, which was applied inside the abdomen at the end o…

This study tested a specific nerve block technique to see if it could improve pain control for patients having their gallbladder removed via keyhole surgery. Researchers compared patients who received the nerve block to those who did not, measuring pain levels, need for other pai…

This study tested whether watching a video before gallbladder surgery helps patients recover better than reading a brochure. 92 patients were randomly assigned to receive either video or brochure instructions about pain management, wound care, and getting back to normal activitie…

This study aimed to see if a simple measurement of heart rate patterns before surgery could predict which patients would experience nausea and vomiting afterwards. Researchers observed 110 women having elective gallbladder surgery, measuring their heart rate variability before an…

This study aimed to find out if patients who have had keyhole gallbladder removal surgery can be safely checked for discharge 4 hours after their procedure, instead of the usual 24 hours. Researchers compared a standard recovery checklist at both time points in 60 patients. The g…

This study aimed to understand how the increased pressure inside the abdomen during keyhole gallbladder surgery might affect the heart's electrical activity. Researchers monitored 48 patients using a standard heart monitor (ECG) before, during, and after their surgery. The goal w…

This study compared two different types of clips used to seal a duct during keyhole gallbladder removal surgery. Researchers wanted to see if using a single absorbable clip was as safe and reliable as a single non-absorbable clip. They followed 120 patients to check for complicat…
