Conditions

Female Genital Disease

Keywords

Laparoscopic surgery, COX-2 inhibitor, Celecoxib, Prostanoid

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to compare postoperative pain following COX-2 and prostanoids expression in women who underwent laparoscopic surgery for female genital disease in order to evaluate the effect of COX-2 on local inflammation, COX-2 and prostanoids expression followed by exposure time to carbon dioxide(CO2) gas, and degree of postoperative pain.

Detailed description

In women who underwent laparoscopic surgery for female genital disease, the effect of COX-2 on local inflammation was assessed by randomization, using the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib and placebo, comparative evaluation of expression of COX-2 and prostanoids by pre/postoperative peritoneal biopsy and postoperative pain depending on gas exposure time

Interventions

Celebrex 200mg/1cap 2 tablets, take medication an hour before surgery

DRUGPlacebo Oral Tablet

Ramnos 250mg/1cap 2 tablets, take medication an hour before surgery

PROCEDUREPreoperative peritoneal biopsy

Preoperative peritoneal biopsy (1x1cm sized peritoneal tissue)

PROCEDURESingle-port laparoscopic surgery

Single-port laparoscopic surgery with CO2 gas

PROCEDUREPostoperative peritoneal biopsy

Postoperative peritoneal biopsy (1x1cm sized peritoneal tissue)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change of biomarkers expression according to exposure to CO2 gasPeritoneal biopsy will be done twice (intraoperative, at right after trocar insertion and right before trocar removal, an average of 2-3hours)Peritoneal biopsy and real-time polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR), Immunohistochemistry of Biomarkers (COX-2, PGE2, PGF2, PGI2, TXA2)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Visual analogue scale(VAS) scoreevery six hours for 48 hoursDegree of postoperative pain (No pain : 0 / Moderate pain : 5 / Unbearable pain : 10)
Numbers of rescue analgesiaFrom postoperation state to discharge (up to 2 days)Frequency of additional pain killer (Tramadol 50mg, Ketorolac 2mg/kg)
Postoperative complicationFrom postoperation state to discharge (up to 2 days)nausea, vomiting, etc.
Duration of hospitalizationFrom postoperation state to discharge (up to 2 days)duration of hospitalization
