ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of ultrasonic-harmonic scalpel in open thyroid surgery.Methods Totally 70 patients with thyroid surgery from January 2012 to January 2014 in some hospital were selected as the study objects, who were divided into a control group and an observation group equally. The patients in the control group went through traditional surgery, and the ones in the observation group underwent open thyroid surgery. Then the operative time, blood loss, postoperative hospital stay before and after surgery and body stress-related serum markers of two groups were analyzed and compared.Results The observation group had the operative time, blood loss and postoperative hospital stay significantly better than those of the control group, and the body stress-related serum markers 5 days after operation significantly lower than that of the control group, with P<0.05.Conclusion The short-term clinical effect of ultrasonic-harmonic scalpel in open thyroid surgery is significantly better than that of traditional surgery, which has high safety and lower degree of adverse physical stress.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application effects of ultrasonic scalpel combined with bipolar coag-ulation tweezers on open thyroid surgery.Methods 80 cases of thyroidectomy patients were randomly selected.These patients were divided into two groups by random cluster sampling method,whch were the study group (n =40)and control group (n =40).The control group of patients were given ultracision ligature methods combined with traditional therapy,while the study group of patients were given ultrasonic scalpel combined with bipolar coagulation tweezers treatment.And then the surgical related indicators and complications of the two groups of patients were statistically an-alyzed.Results Compared with the control group of (90.5 ±3.6)min,(6.5 ±0.6)d,(40.5 ±2.0)mL,(50.3 ± 1.4)mL and (6.6 ±0.5)cm,the operative time and length of stay of the study group of patients[(58.5 ±5.4)min and (3.4 ±0.2)d]were significantly shorter (t =6.965,3.143,all P <0.05);the blood loss and postoperative drainage of (5.0 ±1.4)mL and (1.0 ±0.6)mL were significantly less (t =4.541,3.747,all P <0.05);the cut diameter of (3.8 ±0.3)cm was significantly shorter (t =3.365,P <0.05);the complication rate of 2.5% (1 /40) was significantly lower than the control group 10.0%(4 /40)(χ2 =9.35,P <0.05).Conclusion The application effects of ultrasonic scalpel combined with bipolar coagulation tweezers on open thyroid surgery are obvious.
