Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RECENT TRENDS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 0, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
In view of time and budget constraints ambulatory proctological sugery is getting popular. Our study is aimed at studying ambulatory proctological surgery as a novel and cost effective method. History finds the beginning of ambulatory anorectal surgery at University of California, Los Angeles in 1962, following which it has evolved over the course of years. Patients who were undergoing elective anorectal surgeries with posterior perineal block as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria at KLES hospital Belgaum between November 2004 to November 2005 formed the subjects of the study, sample size included a total of 30 patients .The present study of ambulatory proctological surgery as a novel method in todays practice holds true as all the patients with posterior perineal block group were ambulatory in less than half an hour of surgery ,Most of the patients had mild pain post operatively.16.7 % patients had urinary retention postoperatively but it was statistically insignificant. 86.67% of patients in the posterior perineal block group were discharged within 24 hours of operation. From our study we conclude that ambulatory proctological surgery is suggested as a novel method of practice especially under posterior perineal block as there is less amount of post operative pain,patients get discharged early, thereby reducing costs and making healthcare more affordable.
