Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected that patients receiving botulinum toxin may benefit from improved pain relief and, in turn, greater postoperative comfort. The primary outcome will be the subjective intensity of pain, measured daily by patients using a visual analog scale (VAS) from 0 to 10. This scale will be recorded from the immediate postoperative period (d0) until 7 consecutive days after hospital discharge (d1, d2, d3, d4, d5, d6, and d7) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to observe that patients receiving botulinum toxin require less analgesics compared to the control group. Secondary outcome will be the amount of analgesia used by the participant post-operatively (use of ibuprofen (400 mg) and dipyrone or paracetamol;It is expected to observe that patients receiving botulinum toxin require experience improved bowel movement patterns with a reduced need for laxatives compared to the control group;It is expected to observe that patients receiving botulinum toxin have a shorter healing time compared to the control group. Healing time will be defined as the interval between the day of the hemorrhoidectomy and the last outpatient visit for postoperative care;It is expected to observe that patients receiving botulinum toxin to experience less urinary retention compared to the control group;It is expected to observe that patients receiving botulinum toxin to experience to return to work activities more quickly compared to the control group;It is expected to observe that patients receiving botulinum toxin require a shorter hospital stay compared to the control group;Patients receiving botulinum toxin are expected to require less analgesics; less laxatives; have a shorter healing time; less urinary retention; a faster return to work; and a shorter hospital stay compared to the control group. Secondary outcomes will be the amount of analgesia used by the participant post-operatively (use of ibuprofen (400 mg) and dipyrone or paracetamol); the frequency of daily bowel movements; healing time; the need for laxatives; the presence of urinary retention; the time to return to work; and the length of post-operative hospital stay. Healing time will be defined as the interval between the last visit to the outpatient clinic for post-operative care and the day of the hemorrhoidectomy;Patients receiving botulinum toxin are expected to require less analgesics; less laxatives; have a shorter healing time; less urinary retention; a faster r | — |
