Examining the Effect of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy on Coagulation Tests Among Patients Undergoing the Surgery in Ali Ibn Abi Taleb Hospital in Zahedan in 2018

Background: laparoscopic cholecystectomy, one of the mostcommonelective surgical procedures, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure for patients with gallbladder diseases. objectives: this study aimed to evaluate the effect of laparoscopic cholecystectomy on coagulation tests among patients undergoing the surgery in ali ibn abi taleb hospital in zahedan. methods: following a quasi-experimental design, 21 cases scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy for whatever reasons at ali ibn abi taleb hospital in zahedan (iran) were selected. to study the serum levels of blood factors, blood samples were collected at three stages, i.e., before the surgery (time point 1), 30 minutes after pumping the carbon dioxide gas into the abdomen (time point 2), and 30 minutes after removing the last port from the abdomen (time point 3). data were analyzed using repeated measures. results: according to the findings, laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery only had a significant effect on the pt coagulation factor at the 99% confidence level. also, pt was increased and significantly differed at time points 2 (30 minutes after pumping) and 3 (30 minutes after removing the port) compared to time point 1 (30 minutes before the surgery). conclusions: generally, it can beargued that despite observingsomevariations in the pt coagulation factor during the laparoscopic surgery, the inr level did not change. hence, it can be considered as a safe surgical intervention for renal and liver functions.
