PAIN SYNDROME IN PATIENTS AFTER COMBINED OPERATIONS FOR COMBINED ANORECTAL DISEASES USING MODERN SURGICAL TECHNOLOGIES

Abstract

The aim: To compare the pain in patients with combined pathology of the anal canal and rectum after combined operations using modern high-frequency electrosurgical and radio-surgical devices and a conventional metal scalpel. Materials and methods: The results of treatment of 635 patients with combined pathology of the anal canal and rectum using high-frequency electrosurgery and radio-wave surgery, which were divided into 4 study groups, as well as 112 patients using a metal surgical scalpel were analyzed. Results: Assessing the pain syndrome on the first day of the postoperative period, it was found that it was most pronounced in control group patients, where the need for anal¬gesia 2 % promedol solution was 4±1 ml and in the first, third and fourth study groups patients needed for analgesia 2±1 ml of 2 % promedol solution when using “Surgitron” radio-wave surgery device, “EFA” and “KLS Martin” high-frequency electrosurgical devices respectively. When using device “ERBE ICC 200”, the need for a 2 % promedol solution for analgesia was 3±1 ml. Conclusions: Using of radio-wave surgery device and high-frequency electrosurgery devices is much better compared to the use of a surgical metal scalpel because they cause much less pain due to the formation of a thin layer of coagulation necrosis, promoting the formation of a delicate elastic scar and preventing formation of scar anal strictures.
