Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the factors predicting prolonged hospitalization following abdominal wall hernia repair. Material and Methods: This was a prospective observational study which included patients operated for elective and emergency abdominal wall hernias. Details of the patients including demographic profile, hernia characteristics, and perioperative factors were collected. Patients were followed up till discharge from the hospital to record the postoperative local and systemic complications. Patients who stayed for more than three days were considered as longer hospital stay. Analysis was performed to identify factors associated with the longer hospital stay. Results: A total of 200 consecutive patients of abdominal wall hernia were included over a period of two years. Female sex (p 60 minutes, p< 0.05), usage of drain (p< 0.05), and surgical site infection (SSI, p= 0.001) were significantly associated with increased length of hospital stay. Whereas, age distribution, socio-economic status, co-morbidities, recurrent surgery, type of hernia repair and the level of surgeon did not affect the length of hospital stay. Conclusion: The risk factors associated with prolonged hospital stay in patients undergoing abdominal wall hernia repair were female sex, obesity, smoking and alcoholism, incisional hernia, complicated hernias, higher ASA class, and prolonged duration of surgeries.

Özet

Giriş ve Amaç: Karın duvarı fıtığı onarımının ardından hastanede kalış süresinin uzamasını öngören faktörleri belirlemek. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu, elektif ve acil abdominal duvar fıtığı nedeniyle opere edilen hastaları içeren prospektif bir gözlemsel çalışmadır. Demografik profil, fıtık özellikleri ve perioperatif faktörler dahil olmak üzere hastaların detayları toplandı. Postoperatif lokal ve sistemik komplikasyonları kaydetmek için hastalar hastaneden taburcu oluncaya kadar takip edildi. Üç günden fazla kalan hastalar hastanede kalış süresi olarak kabul edildi. Daha uzun hastanede kalış ile ilişkili faktörleri belirlemek için analiz yapıldı. Bulgular: İki yıllık bir süre boyunca 200 ardışık karın duvarı fıtığı hastası dahil edildi. Kadın cinsiyeti (p 60 dakika; p< 0,05), dren kullanımı (p< 0,05) ve cerrahi alan enfeksiyonu (SSI; p= 0,001) hastanede kalış süresinin artması ile anlamlı derecede ilişkili idi. Oysa yaş dağılımı, sosyo-ekonomik durum, eşlik eden hastalıklar, tekrarlayan cerrahi, fıtık tipi ve cerrah seviyesi hastanede kalış süresini etkilemedi. Sonuç: Karın duvarı fıtığı tamiri yapılan hastalarda hastanede uzun süre kalmayla ilişkili risk faktörleri kadın cinsiyet, obezite, sigara ve alkolizm, insizyon fıtığı, komplike fıtıklar, daha yüksek ASA sınıfı ve uzamış ameliyat süreleridir.
