RESUMO

<b>Indroduction:</b> Hemorrhoids often cause pain, and achieving painless outcomes through surgery is challenging. Hemorrhoidal Laser Ablation, a method for treating severe hemorrhoids, has limited documentation in clinical trials.</br> <br><b>Aim:</b> This retrospective study aimed to present our experience with Hemorrhoidal Laser Ablation in symptomatic grade II, III, and IV internal hemorrhoids and evaluate the efficacy and safety of this relatively recent technique.</br> <br><b>Material and methods:</b> The cohort included 138 patients with symptomatic hemorrhoids who underwent Hemorrhoidal Laser Ablation at three different medical centers in 2017-2022. Patients were treated with a 1470 nm diode laser. Data were collected on clinical and perioperative characteristics and outcomes.</br> <br><b>Results:</b> No evidence of intraoperative complications occurred. There was no rectal tenesmus or alteration of defecation habits. Early mild postoperative symptoms were observed for an average of one week after the operation. The plateau of symptom resolution and downgrading of hemorrhoid size reached approximately six months post-procedure. The short- -term recurrence rate was 0.8% within roughly a month after the laser surgery, while the long-term recurrence rate was 5% over up to five years of follow-up. The overall satisfaction rate was 95% with symptomatic relief.</br> <br><b>Conclusions:</b> Hemorrhoidal Laser Ablation is a painless outpatient technique that does not require general anesthesia. It is an easy-to-perform, convenient, safe, and efficient modality in reducing symptoms and complications of grades II, III, and IV internal hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoidal Laser Ablation limits postoperative discomfort and allows the patient to return to daily routines quickly.</br>.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Laser hemorrhoidoplasty has demonstrated significant therapeutic effectiveness. To diminish postoperative bleeding and enhance overall outcomes, we have additionally adopted suture ligating the feeding vessels. This study aimed to understand the treatment outcomes and any associated complications. METHODS: This study comprised patients with symptomatic grade II-III hemorrhoids who underwent laser hemorrhoidoplasty with feeding vessel suture ligation and Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy between 1 September 2020, and 31 August 2022. Surgical-related details, postoperative pain, discomfort after discharge, hemorrhoid recurrence, and any complications were collected from inpatient records, outpatient follow-ups, and telephone interviews. Initially, we will analyze the distinctions between the laser group and the traditional group, followed by an investigation into complications and satisfaction within the laser surgery subgroup. RESULTS: The study included 323 patients, with 173 undergoing laser hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) and 150 undergoing Milligan-Morgan hemorrhoidectomy. Regarding pain assessment, the LHP group exhibited superior performance compared to traditional surgery at postoperative 4 h, before discharge, and during the first and second outpatient visits, with statistically significant differences. Additionally, the LHP group had a lower rate of urinary retention and experienced significantly less pain, with statistically significant differences. CONCLUSIONS: Laser hemorrhoidoplasty with feeding vessels suture ligation has been shown to reduce postoperative pain and appears to be a promising minimally invasive treatment option for symptomatic grade II and III hemorrhoids.

RESUMO

Background: This non-randomized study aimed to compare the efficacy of two pharmacological treatments, "around-the-clock" analgesic treatment (ACAT) and "on-demand" analgesic treatment (ODAT), for managing postoperative pain following hemorrhoidectomy. Material and Methods: The study, conducted from July 2016 to December 2020, included 5335 hemorrhoidectomy patients. Participants were divided into ACAT (3767) and ODAT (1568) groups. The study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04953182). Results: Patients had a mean age of 47.47 years, with 59.98% males. Postoperatively, 14.13% reported severe pain, 36.49% moderate, 34.28% mild, and 15.09% no pain. ACAT group's maximum pain was 3.04 (VAS), ODAT 4.95 (p; average pain was 0.79 (ACAT) and 1.45 (ODAT). Discharge pain was 0.42 (ACAT) and 0.63 (ODAT) VAS. The ACAT group consistently reported lower levels of pain across all measured instances. Higher BMI and younger age were pain risk factors (p=.049, p .001 respectively). ACAT administration resulted in reduced opioid usage, with meperidine showing a 68.38% decrease, morphine 43.57% less, tramadol 46.82% less, oxycodone reduced by 38.74%, and codeine by 53.40%. Additionally, the use of non-opioid analgesics was notably lower in the ACAT group, ranging from 16% to 59% less compared to the ODAT group. Conclusion: Hemorrhoidectomy induces moderate postoperative pain, with only 14% experiencing severe pain. A fixed schedule multimodal pain regimen, regardless of procedure and anesthesia type, reduces pain from moderate to mild post-hemorrhoidectomy. This approach also decreases opioid and non-opioid analgesic requirements. Higher BMI and younger age are identified as risk factors for elevated postoperative pain.

RESUMO

Observational studies have reported an association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), and hemorrhoids (HEM). However, the presence of a causal relationship within this observed association remains to be confirmed. Consequently, we utilized the Mendelian randomization (MR) method to assess the causal effects of IBD on hemorrhoids. We validated the association between IBD and hemorrhoids in humans based on genome-wide association studies (GWAS) data. To investigate the causal relationship between IBD and hemorrhoids, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization study using training and validation sets. The genetic variation data for IBD, CD, UC, and hemorrhoids were derived from published genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of individuals of European. Two-sample Mendelian randomization and Multivariable Mendelian randomization (MVMR) were employed to determine the causal relationship between IBD (CD or UC) and hemorrhoids. Genetically predicted overall IBD was positively associated with hemorrhoids risk, with ORs of 1.02 (95% CIs 1.01-1.03, P = 4.39 × 10-4) and 1.02 (95% CIs 1.01-1.03, P = 4.99 × 10-5) in the training and validation sets, respectively. Furthermore, we found that CD was positively associated with hemorrhoids risk, with ORs of 1.02 (95% CIs 1.01-1.03, P = 4.12 × 10-6) and 1.02 (95% CIs 1.01-1.02, P = 3.78 × 10-5) for CD in the training and validation sets, respectively. In addition, we found that UC in the training set was positively associated with hemorrhoids risk (ORs 1.02, 95% CIs 1.01-1.03, P = 4.65 × 10-3), while no significant causal relationship between UC and hemorrhoids was shown in the validation set (P > 0.05). However, after MVMR adjustment, UC in the training set was not associated with an increased risk of hemorrhoids. Our study showed that there is a causal relationship between CD and hemorrhoids, which may suggest that clinicians need to prevent the occurrence of hemorrhoids in CD patients.

RESUMO

<b>Introduction:</b> Hemorrhoidal disease is the most common disease treated in proctology ambulatories. Conservative treatment is the basic form of treatment for this disease. One of the elements of treatment may be preparations with myoand phlebotropic effects.<b>Aim:</b> To assess the effect of a multi-ingredient myophlebotropic dietary supplement used as an adjunct on the rate and effectiveness of symptom relief in patients with stage II and III hemorrhoidal disease.<b>Material and method:</b> Patients with stage II and III hemorrhoidal disease with clinical symptoms such as pain, burning, itching and bleeding were qualified for the study. The patients were divided into two groups. The control group (Group I) of 29 patients receiving standard local treatment plus placebo and the study group (Group II) of 32 patients receiving the same local treatment and a six-component myophlebotropic product. Symptoms were analyzed at the time of inclusion in the study (day 0), after 4 and 10 days of therapy. The severity of hemorrhoidal disease and the feeling of relief were assessed on the day of inclusion (W0) and after 30 days of therapy.<b>Results:</b> There were no statistical differences between the groups in terms of disease advancement, age, gender, and duration of symptoms. Compared to the moment of inclusion in the study (W0), after 4 days (W1), after 10 days (W2) of taking the multi- -component product, there was a statistically significant improvement in the VAS scale: spontaneous pain and pain during defecation. In the qualitative assessment (yes/no), there were statistically significantly fewer cases of burning in the anus and itching. The treatment did not affect the rate of spontaneous bleeding, which was low at the beginning of the study, but significantly reduced the rate of bleeding during defecation. After 30 days of observation, it was found that the improvement in the severity of hemorrhoidal disease symptoms was significantly higher in the group using the tested preparation. Relief after a month of the study (one-question method) was noted in the group of patients receiving the tested product.<b>Conclusions:</b> The tested six-component myophlebotropic product proved to be effective in reducing the severity of symptoms such as spontaneous pain, pain during defecation, burning/burning in the anus and bleeding during defecation. Statistical significance was demonstrated in the symptom's relief and reduction in the severity of hemorrhoidal disease.

RESUMO

Recent advancement in surgical treatment of haemorrhoidal disease is not accessible by low socio-economic group of patient in a peripheral hospital of an underdeveloped country, where we aimed to evaluate the outcome of conventional surgeries. This descriptive, prospective, observational study was performed from diagnosis of haemorrhoidal disease to surgical intervention and followed up 12 months post operatively. Clinico-pathological data and outcome in the form of complications and recurrence within follow-up period was studied. Total 64 adult patients with mean age 38.6 years and male female ratio 1.7:1 were included in this study. Mean duration of symptoms was 13 months, reflects late presentation. Two (2) piles mass was seen most frequent in 36(56.3%) cases and most of the patients i.e. 44(68.8%) had haemorrhoids only on primary sites (3, 7 and 11 o'clock) of anal canal, but 18(28.1%) had mixed primary and secondary position of haemorrhoids. Similarly among those who had more than one haemorrhoid, grade 4 was commonest 35(53.1%) followed by only grade 3 in 15(23.4%) cases but mixed grade 3 and 4 was seen in 10(15.6%) patient. Complication less recovery was seen in 56(87.5%) cases, where delayed wound healing and pain was reported in 2(3.6%) patient each, followed by 1(1.6%) each reported urinary retention, anal sepsis, primary bleeding and reactionary bleeding. Mean hospital stay was 4 days. Conventional surgeries are equally efficacious and cost effective option for management of operable haemorrhoidal disease at any setup.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Hemorrhoids are a common problem associated with symptoms, like swelling, local thrombosis and generally with a decreased quality of life, often in otherwise healthy subjects. Hemorrhoids can be classified by grades (I to IV) according to their severity. In this registry study subjects treated with excisional hemorrhoidectomy (EH) for the first time, were included. After surgery, edema tends to complicate surgical areas causing relevant symptoms. Most hemorrhoids symptoms are related to alterations in bowel habits. Increase in diet fibers to avoid constipation, exercise, and limiting straining reduce recurrence after surgery. METHODS: The aim of the registry study was to evaluate the effects of Pycnogenol® (Horphag Research, Geneva, Switzerland) on relieving postoperative symptoms following hemorrhoidectomy. Pycnogenol® 150 mg/day was used between one month before surgery up to one month after surgery. The main postoperative symptoms were scored. RESULTS: Thirty-eight subjects completed the 60-day supplement registry study. Eighteen subjects were supplemented with Pycnogenol® in addition to the standard management (SM) and 20 subjects only received SM and were considered as controls. The two groups were comparable for age, sex and main symptoms distribution and for their clinical characteristics at inclusion. No other disease was present. The scores for pain, discomfort, and constipation were significantly lower with the supplement compared to controls (P<0.05) 10 and 30 days after surgery. In addition, the quality-of-life score was higher with Pycnogenol® (P<0.05) while bleeding (minimal, not clinically evaluable) and a possible residual anal stenosis (requiring a longer period of observation) were barely observed. A satisfactory return to activity was observed 30 days after surgery in the 18 subjects using Pycnogenol®, and in only 15 out of 20 patients (75%) in the control group (P<0.05). All Pycnogenol® subjects were able to drive and perform daily tasks in comparison with 14 out of 20 subjects in the control group. The proportion of patients that took pain medication from day 10 to 30 post-surgery was significantly lower in the Pycnogenol® group than in controls (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In this post-surgical pilot, registry study, Pycnogenol® was effective in preventing and controlling postoperative symptoms after hemorrhoidectomy. To confirm the results, more cases are needed, including different surgical methods and clinical conditions. Mucosal and cutaneous edema and perianal swelling - generally seen after surgery - seem to be clearly reduced with Pycnogenol® and the supplement intake was associated with a more regular and pain-controlled convalescence and healing.

RESUMO

This case report outlines the intricate management of rectal perforation following laser hemorrhoidoplasty in a 31-year-old female, leading to an acute abdomen, sepsis, and multiorgan failure. Urgent laparoscopic exploration and the establishment of a double-loop colostomy were undertaken, marking the beginning of a complex course characterized by relapsed pelvic sepsis. Laser hemorrhoidoplasty has gained widespread acceptance for its minimally invasive approach in treating hemorrhoids. Remarkably, to our knowledge, the case we present is the first major complication reported after laser hemorrhoidoplasty, likely attributed to collateral thermic and mechanical tissue damage.

RESUMO

Hemorrhoid disease is a common anorectal disorder affecting populations worldwide, with high prevalence, treatment difficulties, and considerable treatment costs. Compared to other treatment options, medical therapy for hemorrhoids offers minimal harm, more dignity to patients, and is more economical. Unfortunately, there are few chemical hemorrhoid medications available clinically, which makes the search for efficacious, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly new medication classes a focal point of research. In this context, searching for available natural products to improve hemorrhoids exhibits tremendous potential. These products are derived from nature, predominantly from plants, with a minor portion coming from animals, fungi, and algae. They have excellent coagulation pathway regulation, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and tissue regeneration activities. Therefore, we take the view that they are a class of potential hemorrhoid drugs, prevention products, and medication add-on ingredients. This article first reviews the factors contributing to the development of hemorrhoids, types, primary symptoms, and the mechanisms of natural products for hemorrhoids. Building on this foundation, we screened natural products with potential hemorrhoid improvement activity, including polyphenols and flavonoids, terpenes, polysaccharides, and other types.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Perianal ulcers (PAUs) related to antihemorrhoidal product use have been recently reported in the literature through a few case reports. However, other etiologies of PAU must be ruled out, including infectious disease, inflammatory disease, malignancy, pressure injuries, radiotherapy, and other topical drugs. In this report, the authors describe two cases of PAUs due to an antihemorrhoidal ointment. In case 1, a 68-year-old woman with a history of hemorrhoids presented with PAUs after using an antihemorrhoidal ointment for 2 months. The ulcers were assessed through a histopathologic study and treated with calcium alginate dressings, with complete re-epithelialization occurring after 2 months. In case 2, a 58-year-old woman with a history of hemorrhoids developed painful PAUs while using an antihemorrhoidal ointment for 2 months. No other probable cause was found, and the ulcers were treated by discontinuing the ointment. The ulcers showed marked improvement, and complete re-epithelialization occurred after 6 weeks without additional treatment.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: A high number of topical products are available for the treatment of hemorrhoidal symptoms. Sucralfate-based topical products constitute a new treatment alternative that act as a mechanical barrier to facilitate healing. The aim of this prospective, observational study was to determine patient- and physician-assessed effectiveness and tolerability of rectal ointment and suppositories containing sucralfate for the treatment of hemorrhoidal symptoms in routine clinical practice. METHODS: Adult patients with diagnosed, mild-to-moderate, symptomatic non-bleeding hemorrhoids treated with rectal ointment or suppositories containing sucralfate were enrolled. Patients were administered treatment twice per day for at least 1 week until symptom resolution and/or for a maximum of 4 weeks. The primary endpoint was patient-assessed effectiveness on a modified Symptom Severity Score (mSSS, range 0 to 14). Physician-assessed effectiveness (9 symptoms, 0 to 5 Likert scale), hemorrhoid grade, and patient satisfaction were also determined. RESULTS: Five investigators enrolled 60 patients; mean age was 48.4 ± 16.6 years and 72.4% were female. Pain or pressure sensitivity was reported as the most severe symptom by patients, and pressure sensitivity, discharge, soiling, and prolapse by physicians. Mean patient-assessed mSSS at baseline was 6.6 ± 1.9 and was significantly improved overall and in the ointment and suppository groups individually by -4.6 ± 2.0, -4.4 ± 1.8, and -4.8 ± 2.2, respectively (p < 0.0001). Investigator-assessed mean baseline symptom score was 18.1 ± 3.9 and improved by -7.1 ± 4.5, -6.9 ± 5.4, and -7.3 ± 3.5, respectively (p < 0.0001). Investigator-assessed symptoms of pressure sensitivity, swelling, and discharge were improved to the greatest extent. Hemorrhoid grade was improved in 38% of patients at the end of treatment. Compliance with treatment was 97.4% and patient satisfaction with application and onset of action was high (81.3% and 76.2%, respectively). Both the ointment and suppository were well tolerated. CONCLUSIONS: The effectiveness of topical ointment or suppository containing sucralfate on patient- and investigator-assessed hemorrhoidal symptoms in real-life clinical practice was demonstrated. Patient satisfaction was high and treatments were well tolerated. Larger controlled trials are warranted to confirm the results.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Hemorrhoidal artery embolization (Emborrhoid) is a novel method for the treatment of severe hemorrhoidal bleeding. Despite having a technical success rate of 93%-100%, the clinical success ranges between 63% and 94%, with a rebleeding rate of 13.6%. AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness of this procedure in reducing hemorrhoidal flow and hemorrhoidal bleeding. METHODS: This prospective observational pilot study was conducted at Division of General Surgery 1 and Tertiary Referral Pelvic Floor Center, Treviso Regional Hospital, Italy. In a 2 months period (February-March 2022), consecutive patients with hemorrhoidal bleeding scores (HBSs) ≥ 4, Goligher scores of II or III, failure of non-operative management, and a candidate for Emborrhoid were included. Endoanal ultrasound with eco-Doppler was performed preoperatively and 1 month after the procedure. The primary endpoint was to quantify the changes in arterial hemorrhoidal flow after treatment. The secondary endpoint was to evaluate the correlation between the flow changes and the HBS. RESULTS: Eleven patients underwent Emborrhoid. The overall pretreatment mean systolic peak (MSP) was 14.66 cm/s. The highest MSP values were found in the anterior left lateral (17.82 cm/s at 1 o'clock and 15.88 cm/s at 3 o'clock) and in the posterior right lateral (14.62 cm/s at 7 o'clock and 16.71 cm/s at 9 o'clock) quadrants of the anal canal. After treatment, the overall MSP values were significantly reduced (P = 0.008) although the correlation between MSP and HBS changes was weak (P = 0.570). A statistical difference was found between distal embolization compared with proximal embolization (P = 0.047). However, the coil landing zone was not related to symptoms improvement (P = 1.000). A significant difference in MSP changes was also reported between patients with type 1 and type 2 superior rectal artery (SRA) anatomy (P = 0.040). No relationship between hemorrhoidal grades (P = 1.000), SRA anatomy (P = 1.000) and treatment outcomes was found. CONCLUSION: The preliminary findings of this pilot study confirm that Emborrhoid was effective in reducing the arterial hemorrhoidal flow in hemorrhoidal disease. However, the correlation between the post-operative MSP and HBS changes was weak. Hemorrhoidal grade, SRA anatomy and type of embolization were not related to treatment outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND Severe anemia caused by hemorrhoidal hematochezia is typically treated preoperatively with reference to severe anemia treatment strategies from other etiologies. This retrospective cohort study included 128 patients with hemorrhoidal severe anemia admitted to 3 hospitals from September 1, 2018, to August 1, 2023, and aimed to evaluate preoperative blood transfusion requirements. MATERIAL AND METHODS Of 5120 patients with hemorrhoids, 128 (2.25%; male/female: 72/56) experienced hemorrhoidal severe anemia, transfusion, and Milligan-Morgan surgery. Patients were categorized into 2 groups based on their preoperative hemoglobin (PHB) levels after transfusion: PHB ≥70 g/L as the liberal-transfusion group (LG), and PHB <70 as the restrictive-threshold group (RG). The general condition, bleeding duration, hemoglobin level on admission, transfusion volume, length of stay, immune transfusion reaction, surgical duration, and hospitalization cost were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS Patients with severe anemia (age: 41.07±14.76) tended to be younger than those with common hemorrhoids (age: 49.431±15.59 years). The LG had a significantly higher transfusion volume (4.77±2.22 units), frequency of immune transfusion reactions (1.22±0.58), and hospitalization costs (16.69±3.31 thousand yuan) than the RG, which had a transfusion volume of 3.77±2.09 units, frequency of immune transfusion reactions of 0.44±0.51, and hospitalization costs of 15.00±3.06 thousand yuan. Surgical duration in the LG (25.69±14.71 min) was significantly lower than that of the RG (35.24±18.72 min). CONCLUSIONS Patients with hemorrhoids with severe anemia might require a lower preoperative transfusion threshold than the currently recognized threshold, with an undifferentiated treatment effect and additional benefits.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The anal symptoms occurring during pregnancy and post-partum, mainly related to Haemorrhoidal Disease (HD), have been reported with in a wide range of incidence in the literature. Although in many cases the course of the disease is mild and self-limiting, sometimes it is severe enough to affect quality of life. METHODS: Our study has been conducted through a questionnaire administered via social media with the aim of obtaining epidemiologic data on the incidence of the symptoms of HD in an unselected population of pregnant women. In addition, we looked for the presence of those factors notoriously predisposing or associated to HD (constipation, straining on the toilet, low dietary fibres and fluid intake). RESULTS: Out of 133 patients 51% reported symptoms of HD during pregnancy, mainly in the second and third trimester. Constipation, straining on the toilet, low dietary fibres and fluid intake were not significantly related to incidence of HD. Only a previous history of HD was correlated to onset of symptoms of HD in pregnancy and reached a statistical significance (odds ratio = 5.2, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Although with the limitations posed by the nature of our retrospective study via a self-assessment interview, our results suggest that the occurrence of HD in pregnancy seems not sustained by the classical risk factors observed in the general population. At the moment, specific therapeutic measures are lacking and treatment relies on empiric suggestions concerning diet, fluid intake, bowel care, local ointment. Further studies are needed in order to identify a targeted etiologic treatment.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: As a minimally invasive procedure, laser hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) can not only relieve the symptoms of hemorrhoids, but also protect the anal cushion structure. This study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of LHP in the treatment of grade II hemorrhoids. METHODS: A total of 70 patients with grade II hemorrhoids were randomly assigned to receive LHP or Rubber Band Ligation (RBL) (n = 35 per group) in 2019 from a single center. The postoperative pain, bleeding, feeling of anal distension(local falling, swelling, foreign body sensation, stool) and postoperative recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The postoperative pain, bleeding, and feeling of anal distension in the LHP group were improved significantly as compared with the RBL group within 2 weeks after surgery (P < 0.01). Both methods can relieve the symptoms of grade II hemorrhoids. There was no difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups at 1 year after surgery (P > 0.05). The patients in LHP group took less time to return to normal activities (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: As a minimally invasive treatment, LHP is easy and not traumatic and results in mild postoperative pain and few complications. It is an ideal choice for grade II hemorrhoids.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: There are very few French studies on hemorrhoidal disease and its management. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Prospective single-center study from July to December 2021 including 472 patients. RESULTS: Bleeding, prolapse and pain were the main reasons for consultation. Treatment modalities were medical (44%),±instrumental (72%), and surgical (17%). After treatment, the bleeding score and prolapse score decreased significantly (P=0.002 and P≤0.0001, respectively), but improvement was more marked in the surgery group with a better rate of "very good satisfaction" (73% vs. 54%, P=0.003). Factors associated with likelihood of surgical treatment were: age>44years, hypertrophic perianal skin tags, high scores (Bristol>5, bleeding>5, prolapse>2), severe impact on quality of life, smoking and reading during bowel movements. We have developed an online application, which aims to assess the risk of requiring hemorrhoidal surgery. CONCLUSION: Less than 20% of patients who present with hemorrhoidal disease require surgical treatment, but it is associated with better effectiveness despite more complex postoperative consequences that sometimes motivate patient refusal. We have highlighted factors associated with surgical management, which can guide the practitioner in their therapeutic choices.

RESUMO

AIM: Haemorrhoidal disease (HD) is one of the most common anal disorders in the adult population. Despite that, treatment options differ among different countries and specialists, even for the same grade of HD. The aim of this study is to evaluate the differences in patient demographics, surgeon preference for the treatment option, outcomes as well as patient satisfaction rate for the procedure using an office-based or surgical approach for the treatment of HD among International Society of University Colon and Rectal Surgeons (ISUCRS) and European Society of Coloproctology (ECSP) fellows. METHOD: A panel of the ISUCRS and ECSP members will answer questions that are included in a questionnaire about the treatment of HD. The questionnaire will be distributed electronically to ISUCRS and ECSP fellows included in our database and will remain open from 1 April 2024 to 31 May 2024. CONCLUSION: This multicentre, global prospective audit will be delivered by consultant colorectal and general surgeons as well as trainees. The data obtained will lead to a better understanding of the incidence of HD, treatment and diagnostic possibilities. This snapshot audit will be hypothesis generating and inform areas the need future prospective study.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Haemorrhoids are a common chronic anorectal disease, and haemorrhoidectomy is the standard treatment for advanced (grade III and IV) haemorrhoids. Warm water sitz has commonly been used to stimulate urination, cleanse wounds, and decrease pain. Although urinary retention and pain usually occur within the first 24 h after surgery, the warm water sitz bath is provided 24 h after haemorrhoidectomy, which might be a missed opportunity to optimize the quality and efficiency of the care provided. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of early warm water sitz bath on the day of haemorrhoidectomy surgery on preventing urinary retention and reducing wound pain. DESIGN: This was a longitudinal double-blind study with a permuted block randomization design. SETTING(S): This study was conducted in a surgical ward of a medical center. An average of 18 patients receiving hemorrhoid surgery in that ward every month. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 64 participants (32 each in the experimental and control groups) were enrolled. (The first recruitment date is January 16, 2020.) METHODS: Patients who received haemorrhoidectomy for grade III or IV haemorrhoids from January to December 2020 were enrolled. The experimental and control groups received the same conventional treatment and care before the haemorrhoidectomy. The experimental group started warm-water sitz bath 6 h after the surgery, and the control group started warm water sitz bath on post-haemorrhoidectomy day 1 as usual. Urinary retention was defined as use of Foley catheter during the hospital stay or remaining urine volume ≧ 300 ml using the bladder scan. A numerical rating scale was used to rate the pain level. Each participant was evaluated 6 times in total until hospital discharge. The data were analysed by descriptive statistics, chi-square test, and independent samples t test. Generalized estimating equations and intention to treat were used to identify changes in urinary retention and pain over time and missing data, respectively. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the degree of change in the number of people with urinary retention between groups. A change in the wound pain index was noted; the study group had a statistically significant lower pain score than the control group (B = -0.81, 95 % CI: -1.44 to -0.18). CONCLUSIONS: Early warm water sitz bath was a safe and effective strategy to decrease post-haemorrhoidectomy pain, but not urinary retention. Nurses could provide early warm water sitz bath for post-haemorrhoidectomy patients' comfort. REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04535765.
