Deep infiltrative endometriosis involving the bowel is a complex disease in which the optimal minimally invasive surgical approach remains uncertain, particularly regarding long-term fertility, recurrence, and healthcare utilization. We conducted …
Postoperative pain following laparoscopic surgery can delay recovery and increase opioid use. Lower insufflation pressures have been consistently shown to reduce pain in general surgery procedures, but their impact in …
To identify risk factors for dispensed opioid prescriptions after benign hysterectomy.
Women with endometriosis are at increased risk of severe postoperative pain due to nociceptive sensitization. While multimodal analgesia reduces opioid use, the added value of objective nociception monitoring remains unclear. …
Patients with endometriosis undergoing surgery are at risk of moderate-to-severe postoperative pain. Clonidine, an alpha-2 agonist with analgesic properties, may improve multimodal pain management in these patients.
Minimally invasive endometriosis surgery can be done laparoscopically or with robotic assistance. The choice of modality of this procedure could impact postprocedure pain levels and the need for opioids to …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition commonly associated with pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and infertility. Owing to the limitations and adverse effects of traditional hormonal therapies, this study aimed to …
Effective perioperative pain management is crucial to prevent patient suffering, delayed recovery, chronic postsurgical pain, and long-term opioid use. However, the heterogeneous use of outcomes in studies complicates evidence synthesis …
We aimed to identify the amount of opioids used in the postoperative setting for patients with a history of chronic pelvic pain undergoing robotic surgical excision of endometriosis and compare …
