• 1 other identifier: Intraperitoneal drain
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 76
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

To assess the effect of intraperitoneal drain placement on postoperative pain after Gynecologic laparoscopy To evaluate whether the use of drains contributes to improved other clinical outcomes

Conditions

Hysterectomy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Corelation between intraperitoneal drain placement and Postoperative pain in Gynecologic laparoscopy

  Evalute post operative pain levels and discomfort through Visual Analouge Scale (VAS) score

  Baseline

Eligibility Criteria

• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study population will consist of women undergoing elective laparoscopic gynecologic surgery at \[Insert Hospital/Institution Name\] over a \[insert duration, e.g., 6-month or 12-month\] period. Eligible participants will be adult females aged 18 to 65 years who are scheduled for non-oncologic, minimally invasive gynecologic procedures such as ovarian cystectomy, salpingectomy, diagnostic laparoscopy, or laparoscopic management of endometriosis.

You may qualify if:

• Elective procedure: Patients scheduled for elective pure laparoscopic gynecologic surgery (e.g., ovarian cystectomy, endometriosis resection, diagnostic laparoscopy).
• ASA Physical Status: I-II (i.e., healthy or mild systemic disease).
• BMI: 18-35 kg/m².
• Informed Consent: Able and willing to give written consent and comply with postoperative pain assessments.

You may not qualify if:

• Malignancy: Known or suspected gynecologic malignancy requiring staging or radical surgery.
• \. Conversion: Intraoperative conversion to laparotomy.
• \. Coagulopathy: Bleeding disorders or therapeutic anticoagulation that cannot be paused perioperatively.
• \. Prior Major Pelvic Surgery: ≥ 2 previous open abdominal operations (to avoid confounding from adhesions).
• \. Intra-Abdominal Infection: Active pelvic inflammatory disease or untreated urinary tract infection.
• \. Chronic Pain/Opioid Use: Regular opioid use or chronic pelvic pain syndromes (endometriosis pain \> 6 months).
• \. Allergy/Contraindication: Allergy to standard analgesics or contraindication to intraperitoneal drain placement (e.g., severe adhesions).
