Abstract
Background: Due to the prevalence of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, controlling common problems after this surgery is essential. This study aimed to determine the factors affecting pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 222 patients over 18 years old with symptomatic gallstones who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy from March 2021 to February 2022 in Mashhad Medical Sciences of Islamic Azad University Hospitals, were included. The amount of analgesic received after surgery was the same for all patients (Acetaminophen 1 gram intravenously every 8 hours and diclofenac 100 mg rectal every 8 hours). Demographic information of patients, body mass index, history of abdominal surgery, duration of surgery, carbon dioxide pressure, type of surgery (elective or emergency), number of surgical incisions, and pain intensity six and 24 hours after surgery (using a visual analog scale) were collected, and finally, the findings were statistically analyzed by SPSS version 26.
Results: Out of 222 patients, 179 cases were women (80.6%), and their average age and body mass index were 44.68±12.27 years and 27.08±4.7 kg/m2, respectively. In our study, 110 people (49.5%) had a history of abdominal surgery, of which cesarean section was the most common delete. Pain six and 24 hours after the operation was more common in women than in men, and surgery with three incisions was more painful than surgery with four incisions (P<0.05). In patients with a history of surgery, the pain was greater in six hours after surgery (P<0.05). Pain 24 hours after the operation in patients with gas pressure less than or equal to 14mmHg was greater than in patients with gas pressure greater than 14 mmHg (P<0.05). Pain six and 24 hours after surgery according to age, body mass index, type of surgery (emergency or elective), and duration of surgery had no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).
Conclusion: In our study, female gender, use of three incisions for surgery, and history of previous surgery were associated with more pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
