A Comparative Study on Elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy with and Without Antibiotic Therapy
AbstractObjective: The present study was undertaken to evaluate the rate of infection in laparoscopic cholecystectomies,and to assess the usefulness and efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis.Methods: A comparative study of 394 cases of Cholelithiasis who underwent elective la paroscopy in the RamaMedical College Hospital and Research Center, Pilkhuwa, Hapur, Uttar Pradesh, during study period of January2023 to May 2023. Patients were divided into study group and control group. All the patients were categorizedinto study and control groups.Results: The mean age of the patients in the study group was 69.2 +- 4.3 years. In the control group 1 patientdeveloped fever, in study group 7 patients (3.6%) developed pus discharge from port site, in which IV antibioticswere continued in the post-operative period till the time of discharge is calculated to be 3.6%. In study group 5patients (2.5%) had pus discharge.Conclusions: One single dose of prophylactic intravenous antibiotic, administered at induction of anesthesia, issufficient to prevent postoperative infective complications in patient undergoing elective LAPC.
