Summary: This study aims to compare the analgesic effect of retro superior costotransverse ligament space block vs erector spinae plane block to Achieve high-quality perioperative opioid-sparing effect and postoperative analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy with optimum hemodynamic stability and high patient and surgeon satisfaction

Summary: The Effect of Mobilization Using Nature Sounds on Patients' Anxiety, Pain and Stress Levels

Summary: This prospective clinical cohort study will include patients with gallstones and abdominal pain scheduled for surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy). Data on quality of life, abdominal pain, gallstone disease, and patient characteristics will be collected before surgery. The outcomes will be assessed three months following surgery and will primarily be determinants for resolution of pain. The aim ...

Summary: This study aims to investigate the effects of preoperative and postoperative Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block on the frontal QRS-T angle, a marker of cardiac electrophysiological instability, in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A total of 120 patients aged 18-65 with ASA I-II status will be randomized into three groups: Control (no ESP), Preoperative ESP, and Postoperative ESP. El...

Summary: This randomized clinical study aims to compare the postoperative analgesic efficacy, analgesic consumption, and patient satisfaction of erector spinae plane (ESP) block administered in three different patient positions-lateral, prone, and sitting-in individuals undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The study also evaluates the variation in skin-to-block site distance depending on patie...

Summary: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is still considered the gold standard for the surgical management of gallbladder disease due to its minimally invasive nature, shorter recovery time, and reduced postoperative complications. Despite these advantages, patients frequently experience moderate to severe postoperative pain, particularly in the early postoperative period, which can impede recovery, delay mob...

Summary: The goal of this study is to compare safety and efficacy of laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus wait-and-see policy after endoscopic removal of common bile duct stones in elderly. The primary endpoint is a composite outcome: Death or major postoperative complications or recurrent biliary disease within 1 year after randomization.

Summary: This study aims to compare the efficacy of using Ultrasound guided modified thoracoabdominal nerve block through perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) versus quadratus lumborum block for postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia.

Summary: Laryngoscopy and intubation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy often cause sudden increases in heart rate and blood pressure, which can be harmful in some patients. Medications such as labetalol and lignocaine are commonly used to reduce this hemodynamic response. This randomized controlled trial at Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar, will compare intravenous labetalol (0.25 mg/kg) and lignocain...

Methods: This prospective, randomized controlled trial enrolled patients diagnosed with moderate to severe acute cholecystitis who underwent PCC. Clinical manifestations and laboratory parameters were monitored for 72 hours following PCC insertion. Patients demonstrating clinical or laboratory improvement were subsequently randomized into two groups: early LC and delayed LC. * Early LC group: Laparoscopic ...

Summary: Detecting possible atelectasis and other respiratory problems that may develop immediately after extubation via lung ultrasonography can reduce pulmonary complications by performing necessary interventions such as oxygen support, respiratory exercises, mobilization, and non-invasive mechanical ventilation applications at an early stage. In addition, although low-flow anesthesia is frequently used ...

Summary: This study aims to evaluate whether preoperative oral administration of ginger (800 mg, given 2 hours before surgery) reduces the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) within the first 24 hours after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
