RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether a single dose of gabapentin given preoperatively reduces narcotic use 24 hours after minimally invasive hysterectomy (MIH). DESIGN: Randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Single academic-affiliated community hospital. PATIENTS: Women undergoing MIH for benign indications between June 2016 and June 2017. INTERVENTIONS: Subjects were randomized to receive a preoperative regimen of acetaminophen, celecoxib, and gabapentin versus acetaminophen and celecoxib alone. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The primary outcome assessed was the total amount of narcotics used at 24 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes included adverse effects from gabapentin use, total narcotics used, and pain scores at 2 weeks after surgery. A total of 129 women were randomized and eligible for analysis in the gabapentin study arm (n = 68) or the control arm (n = 61). Demographic characteristics and surgical details were similar between groups. Narcotics used at 24 hours after surgery totaling 168 versus 161 oral morphine milligram equivalents in the gabapentin and control groups, respectively, did not significantly differ between groups (p = .60). Total narcotics used and pain scores at 2 weeks after surgery and the rates of adverse effects from gabapentin were also similar between study arms. CONCLUSION: Single-dose, preoperative gabapentin for women undergoing benign MIH does not reduce total opioid use 24 hours after surgery.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The INSPIRE study compared perioperative and 12-month health economic and clinical outcomes associated with hysterectomy, myomectomy, and sonography-guided transcervical fibroid ablation (TFA) using the Sonata® system. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Cost and health care resource utilization (HCRU) data for TFA were obtained from a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical trial. Data for hysterectomy and myomectomy arms were derived from the Truven Health MarketScan commercial payer claims database. The Truven data was used to determine health economic outcomes and costs for the hysterectomy and myomectomy arms. For each arm, payer perspective costs were estimated from the available charge and HCRU data. RESULTS: TFA with Sonata had significantly lower mean length of stay (LOS) of 5 hrs versus hysterectomy (73 hrs) or myomectomy (79 hrs; all p< 0.001). The average payer cost for TFA treatment, including the associated postoperative HCRU was $8,941. This was significantly lower compared to hysterectomy ($24,156) and myomectomy ($22,784; all p< 0.001). In the TFA arm, there were no device- or procedure-related costs associated with complications during the peri- or postoperative time frame. TFA subjects had significantly lower costs associated with complications, prescription medications, and radiology. CONCLUSION: Compared to hysterectomy and myomectomy, TFA treatment with the Sonata system was associated with significantly lower index procedure cost, complication cost, and LOS, contributing to a lower total payer cost through 12 months.

RESUMO

Excessive opioid use and misuse is a pervasive and growing societal problem, and decreasing the surgical contribution to this epidemic represents an opportunity to improve outcomes. Here we describe patterns of opioid prescription, consumption, and persistent use among women undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy (MIH) for benign indications. We performed a systematic review of English full-text articles addressing opioids and gynecologic surgery using MEDLINE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Additional studies were identified by examination of references. Studies were restricted to randomized controlled, cohort, and observational studies reporting primary data on opioid consumption, prescribing patterns, or risk of persistent use surrounding MIH for benign indications. A risk of bias assessment was performed. Twenty-one studies reported on the 3 outcomes of interest. Median opioid consumption after MIH ranged from 14 to 74 oral morphine equivalents (OMEs) in the first 24 hours and from 50 to 100 OMEs over the first 2 postoperative weeks. Physicians prescribed 125 to 300 OMEs after MIH. Persistent opioid use was identified in 1.5% of women undergoing MIH. In a population at risk for persistent opioid use, prescription often exceeds patients' needs. Guidelines for opioid prescribing in the setting of multimodal anesthetic regimens may allow us to lessen our contribution to the opioid epidemic. Further research on patients with chronic pain, patients with chronic opioid use, and the role of patient education is needed.

RESUMO

Fibromyalgia and irritable bowel syndrome are common disorders which often coexist in women with chronic pelvic pain. Like pelvic pain, these disorders describe symptoms without pathologic findings. Women with chronic pelvic pain have a higher prevalence of fibromyalgia (4-31%) and irritable bowel syndrome (8-41%) than the general population. Aberrant pain processing and psychosocial stressors are implicated in the co-occurrence of these pain syndromes (chronic overlapping pain conditions), but active epidemiologic, psychosocial, and neurobiologic research is ongoing. Given the higher prevalence of fibromyalgia and irritable bowel syndrome in women with chronic pelvic pain, gynecologists should have more education in diagnosis and treatment of these and other chronic overlapping pain conditions to improve care for women.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The need for any treatment following an endometrial ablation is frequently cited as "failed therapy," with the two most common secondary interventions being repeat ablation and hysterectomy. Since second-generation devices have become standard of care, no large cohort study has assessed treatment outcomes with regard to only these newer devices. We sought to determine the incidence and predictors of failed second-generation endometrial ablation, defined as the need for surgical re-intervention.We performed a retrospective cohort study at a single academic-affiliated community hospital. Subjects included women undergoing second-generation endometrial ablation for benign indications between October 2003 and March 2016. Second-generation devices utilized during the study period included the radiofrequency ablation device (RFA), hydrothermal ablation device (HTA), and the uterine balloon ablation system (UBA). RESULTS: Five thousand nine hundred thirty-six women underwent endometrial ablation at a single institution (3757 RFA (63.3%), 1848 HTA (31.1%), and 331 UBA (5.6%)). The primary outcome assessed was surgical re-intervention, defined as hysterectomy or repeat endometrial ablation. Of the total 927 (15.6%) women who required re-intervention, 822 (13.9%) underwent hysterectomy and 105 (1.8%) underwent repeat endometrial ablation. Women who underwent re-intervention were younger (41.6 versus 42.9 years, p < .001), were more often African-American (21.8% versus 16.2%, p < .001), and were more likely to have had a primary radiofrequency ablation procedure (hazard ratio 1.37; 95%CI 1.01 to 1.86). Older age was associated with decreased risk for treatment failure with women older than 45 years of age having the lowest risk for failure (p < .001). Age between 35 and 40 years conferred the highest risk of treatment failure (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.32-1.92). Indications for re-intervention following ablation included menorrhagia (81.8%), abnormal uterine bleeding (27.8%), polyps/fibroids (18.7%), and pain (9.5%). CONCLUSION: Surgical re-intervention was required in 15.6% of women who underwent second-generation endometrial ablation. Age, ethnicity, and radiofrequency ablation were significant risk factors for failed endometrial ablation, and menorrhagia was the leading indication for re-intervention.

RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of the porcine training model for obstetrics-gynecology (OB/GYN) residents in laparoscopic salpingectomy. DESIGN: Randomized, controlled single-blinded trial. CLASSIFICATION: Canadian Task Force Classification I. SETTING: A large community-based teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS: All postgraduate year 1 through year 4 OB/GYN residents were enrolled (n = 22). INTERVENTION: All participants underwent a preintervention objective skills assessment test (OSAT), in which the participant performed live human laparoscopic salpingectomy. Residents were randomly assigned (using a computer-generated randomization table, in blocks of 2, stratified by ranked baseline OSAT scores) to the intervention or control group. The intervention group consisted of 1 educational session with presession assigned reading, a 40-min didactic lecture, viewing of a procedural video, and simulation and practice of laparoscopic salpingectomy on a porcine cadaver. The control group received traditional training per routine residency rotations. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Laparoscopic salpingectomy was performed on live patients by study participants pre- and postintervention. These procedures were video recorded, and then scored by a single blinded evaluator of the OSATs. Nine pre- and postintervention OSAT indicators, reflecting provider knowledge and skill, were the primary outcome measures. Secondary outcomes were the changes in 10 subjective measures of comfort, assessed by a pre- and postintervention survey. The outcomes were assessed using 5-point Likert scales (for OSATs 1 = lowest score; for the subjective survey 1 = highest score). The control group OSAT scores did not change (pre: 26.6 ± 10.8, post: 26.2 ± 10.1; p = .65). There were significant improvements in 2-handed surgery (pre: 2.8 ± 1.6, post: 3.5 ± 1.3; p = .004) and use of energy (pre: 2.9 ± 1.3, post: 3.6 ± 1.0; p = .01) in the intervention group, contributing to an overall score change (pre: 26.7 ± 10.6, post: 29.9 ± 9.8; p ≤ .001). The control group had no change in comfort levels. The intervention group experienced both increases (anatomy, steps of surgery, 2-handed surgery, and use of energy) and decreases (reading and learning in operating room) in reported comfort levels. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that simulation can improve surgical technique OSATs. However, of 45 possible points, both groups' average scores were <70% of the optimum. Thus, the improvement, although statistically significant, was relatively small and indicates that further supplementation in training is needed to substantially increase the residents' surgical skills.
