Abstract
Aim: This work investigated the effect of an abdominal corset on the colonoscopy completion rate, as well as cecum and ileum intubation time, total colonoscopy time, and pain score in centrally obese patients.
Methods: Patients were randomized into two groups, with 50 patients in each group. A colonoscopy was performed using the abdominal corset in Group 1 and the standard method in Group 2. The comparison between the groups evaluated demographic data, procedure details, circulatory dynamics, anesthesia data, and visual analogue scale (VAS).
Results: Of the patients included in the study, 60 were female, and 40 were male, with a mean age of 57.3 ± 13.6 years. Cecal intubation time (Z: -2.66 p: 0.008), total colonoscopy time (Z: -2.180 p: 0.029), number of maneuvers (χ2: 8.391 p: 0.039), and VAS (Z: -3.087 p: 0.002) were significantly lower in the abdominal corset group.
Conclusions: An abdominal corset that applies external abdominal compression reduces the cecal intubation time, the total colonoscopy time, the number of maneuvers, and the pain level.
期刊介绍:
Annali Italiani di Chirurgia is a bimonthly journal and covers all aspects of surgery:elective, emergency and experimental surgery, as well as problems involving technology, teaching, organization and forensic medicine. The articles are published in Italian or English, though English is preferred because it facilitates the international diffusion of the journal (v.Guidelines for Authors and Norme per gli Autori). The articles published are divided into three main sections:editorials, original articles, and case reports and innovations.
