Feasibility of tension-free repair of inguinal hernia in senile patients under ultrasound-guided local nerve block.
Updates in Surgery 2024 March 20
The clinical characteristics of open hernia repair under local nerve block guided by ultrasound and epidural anesthesia under daytime surgery mode were compared and analyzed, and the safety, rationality and effectiveness of tension-free repair of inguinal hernia in elderly patients under local nerve block guided by ultrasound were discussed. The clinical data of 200 patients who underwent inguinal hernia day surgery in Liaocheng People's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 2022 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 150 patients who underwent local anesthesia block surgery and 50 patients who underwent epidural surgery. The visual analog score of the ultrasound local anesthesia group was lower than that of the epidural surgery group at 4 h after operation. The time of getting out of bed and postoperative exhaust were shorter than those of epidural operation group. The recovery rate of unrestricted activity 2 weeks after surgery was higher than that in epidural surgery group (P < 0.05). The incidence of postoperative acute urinary retention between the two groups was lower in local ultrasound anesthesia group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The median follow-up time was 4(1-6) months, and the follow-up rate was 100%. Postoperative complications were seroma, wound infection, chronic pain and recurrence, and there was no statistical significance between the two groups (P > 0.05). No serious complications occurred in both groups. Compared with open epidural surgery, ultrasound-guided local nerve block tension-free day surgery in the elderly has the advantages of less pain, faster recovery, and is safe and feasible.
