Abstract
BACKGROUND: To assess the efficacy of the combined maneuvers in evaluation of post-laparoscopic pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A randomized controlled study was conducted. Sixty-four women were included in the study and were randomly divided into two groups. Intervention group received combined maneuvers such as intraperitoneal normal saline infusion, pulmonary recruitment maneuver and local bupivacaine instillation at port sites after laparoscopic surgery. Control group received routine care. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Upper abdominal pain, shoulder pain and incision site pain were noted in both groups at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h postoperatively. RESULTS: The median interquartile range (in centiles) of upper abdominal pain score 3, 6 and 12 h postoperatively in the intervention group was 1.0 (0.25-1.0), 1.0 (0.0-1.0) and 0.50 (0.0-1.0), and in the control group, the values were 2.0 (2.0-1.0), 2.0 (2.0-1.0) and 1.0 (0-1.0) at 3, 6 and 12 h, respectively (p < 0.000). The median interquartile range of shoulder pain score 3, 6 and 12 h postoperatively in the intervention group was 0.0 (0.0-1.0), 0.0 (0.0-0.75) and 0.0 (0.0-1.0), and in the control group, the values were 1.0 (0.0-2.0), 1.0 (0.0-1.75) and 1.0 (0-1.0) at 3, 6, and 12 h. The upper abdominal pain and shoulder pain relief was significantly more in the intervention group than in the control group in the first 12 h of surgery. CONCLUSION: Combined maneuvers could significantly reduce post-laparoscopic upper abdominal and shoulder pain.Clinical Trial CTRI Registration Number-CTRI/2017/07/0089, web address of CTRI-http://ctri.nic.in. © Federation of Obstetric & Gynecological Societies of India 2019.
