Disease Status of Pancreatobiliary Tract , ( Especially Who Need to Undergo Pancreaticoduodenectomy)
Conditions
Brief summary
Pancreaticoduodenectomy is inevitably an operation requiring extensive skin and muscle incision, resulting in postoperative pain resulting in limitation of the patient's early exercise and function. ETOIMS(Electrical Twitch Obstructive Intramuscular Stimulation) is used to relieve muscle pain and relax muscles. ETOIMS is a method to relieve pain by stimulating muscle in myofascial pain syndrome. ETOIMS as an effective new treatment for pain after pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Interventions
PROCEDUREETOIMS(Electrical Twitch Obtaining Intramuscular Stimulation)
When the abdominal wound is closed, the operator performs needle insertion at 14 sites near the incision site under the guidance of ultrasonography. When the needle is in the abdominal muscle, the operator performs muscle stimulation for about 10 seconds per needle insertion.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pain: VAS (visual analogue scale) | AM 7:00 morning at Preoperative day and the day following surgery before discharge (Postoperative day 1 - Postoperative day 10) | The primary outcome of this study was the postoperative pain score (VAS score) in patients undergoing ETOIMS during surgery. The type of surgery in the experimental group and the control group is the same and the same analgesic agent (IV PCA, Wound PCA) is used. The pain score is measured at 7 o'clock every morning from the day following surgery to discharge (about Postoperative day 10) to confirm the reduced pattern. |
