THE GALSTONES
Gallstones are hardened digestive fluid that can form in your gallbladder. The medical term for gallstone formation is cholelithiasis. Gallstones can leave the gallbladder and block the flow of bile to the ducts and cause pain and swelling of the gallbladder. A gallstone in the common bile duct is called choledocholithiasis.

Cholecystitis is inflammation of the gallbladder, which can happen suddenly (acute) or over a longer period of time

Gallstone Pancreatitis is caused by stones moving into and blocking the common bile duct, the pancreatic duct, or both. A cholecystectomy may be recommended

THE SURGICAL AND NONSURGICAL TREATMENT

SURGICAL TREATMENT

A cholecystectomy, or removal of the the gallbladder is the recommended operation for gallbladder pain from gallstones.

LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY

Surgical Treatment This technique is the most common for simple cholecystectomy. The surgeon will make several small incisions in the abdomen. Ports (hollow tubes) are inserted into the openings. Surgical tools and a lighted camera are placed into the ports. The abdomen is inflated with carbon dioxide gas to make it easier to see the internal organs. The gallbladder is removed, and the port openings are closed with sutures, surgical clips, or glue. Your surgeon may start with a laparoscopic technique and need to change (convert) to an open laparotomy technique. The procedure takes about 1 to 2 hours.

OPEN CHOLECYSTECTOMY

A cholecystectomy, or removal of the gallbladder, is the recommended operation for gallbladder pain from gallstones. The surgeon makes an incision approximately 6 inches long in the upper right side of the abdomen and cuts through the fat and muscle to the gallbladder. The gallbladder is removed, and any ducts are clamped off. The site is stapled or sutured closed. A small drain may be placed going from the inside to the outside of the abdomen. The drain is usually removed in the hospital. The procedure takes about 1 to 2 hours.

NON-SURGICAL TREATMENT

watchful waiting is recommended if you have gallstones but do not have symptoms. About 1 in 5 newly diagnosed patients with acute cholecystitis who do not have surgery readmit to the emergency room within about 12 weeks.

GALLSTONES ONLY, WITHOUT CHOLECYSTITIS

Increase your exercise. Exercising 2 to 3 hours a week reduces the risk of gallstones.

Eat more fruit and vegetables, and eat less of foods high in sugars and carbohydrates like donuts, pastry, and white bread.

CHOLECYSTITIS IN CHILDREN

Four of 100 gallbladder removals are done in children. Almost 70% of children with gallstones do have symptoms. Symptoms in children include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, fatty food intolerance, and fever. Children also receiving continuous IV nutrition and those with long-term antibiotic use, cystic fibrosis, obesity, or a family history have a higher chance of developing gallstones. Nearly 50% of all children with sickle cell disease develop gallstones and should have a screening ultrasound. Children with cholecystitis confirmed by ultrasound, those with severe pain, or those not able to take food or fluids should be evaluated for surgery.

EXPECTATIONS: PREPARING FOR YOUR OPERATION

PREPARING FOR YOUR OPERATION

HOME MEDICATION

Bring a list of all of the medications and vitamins that you are taking, including blood thinners, aspirin, or NSAIDS, and inform your surgical team. Some medications can affect your recovery and response to anesthesia and may have to be adjusted before and after surgery. Most often, you will take your morning medication with a sip of water. Resources about medications can be found at.

ANESTHESIA

Let your anesthesia provider know if you have allergies, neurologic disease (epilepsy, stroke), heart disease, stomach problems, lung disease (asthma, emphysema), endocrine disease (diabetes, thyroid conditions), or loose teeth; if you smoke, drink alcohol, use drugs, or take any herbs or vitamins; or if you have a history of nausea and vomiting with anesthesia.

LENGHT OF STAY

If you have a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, you will usually go home the same day. You may stay overnight if you had an open removal of the gallbladder, a laparoscopic repair with a longer anesthesia time, post-anesthesia issues such as severe nausea and vomiting or you are unable to pass urine

THE DAY OF YOUR OPERATION

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

SAFETY CHECKS

An identification (ID) bracelet and allergy bracelet with your name and hospital/clinic number will be placed on your wrist. These should be checked by all health team members before they perform any procedures or give you medication. Your surgeon will mark and initial the operation site.

FLUIDS AND ANESTHESIA

An intravenous line (IV) will be started to give you fluids and medication. For general anesthesia, you will be asleep and pain-free. A tube will be placed in your throat to help you breathe during the operation. For spinal anesthesia, a small needle with medication will be placed on your back near your spinal column

AFTER YOUR OPERATION

You will be moved to a recovery room where your heart rate, breathing rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, and urine output will be closely watched. Be sure that all visitors wash their hands.

PREVENTING PNEUMONIA AND BLOOD CLOTS

Movement and deep breathing after your operation can help prevent postoperative complications such as blood clots, fluid in your lungs, and pneumonia. Every hour, take 5 to 10 deep breaths and hold each breath for 3 to 5 seconds. When you have an operation, you are at risk of getting blood clots because of not moving during anesthesia. The longer and more complicated your surgery, the greater the risk. This risk is decreased by getting up and walking 5 to 6 times per day, wearing special support stockings or compression boots on your legs, and, for high-risk patients, taking a medication that thins your blood.

DON'T EAT OR DRINK

You will not be allowed to eat or drink while you are being evaluated for an appendectomy. Not eating or drinking reduces your risk of complications from Anesthesia

- Steri-Strips will fall off in 7 to 10 days or they will be removed during your fi rst offi ce visit.

PAIN CONTROL

Everyone reacts to pain in a different way. A scale from 0 to 10 is used to measure pain. At a “0,” you do not feel any pain. A “10” is the worst pain you have ever felt. Following a laparoscopic procedure, pain is sometimes felt in the shoulder. This is due to the gas inserted into your abdomen during the procedure. Moving and walking help to decrease the gas and the right shoulder pain

Extreme pain puts extra stress on your body at a time when your body needs to focus on healing. Do not wait until your pain has reached a level “10” or is unbearable before telling you, doctor or nurse. It is much easier to control pain before it becomes severe.
COMMON MEDICINES TO CONTROL PAIN
Narcotics or opioids are used for severe pain. Possible side effects of narcotics are sleepiness, lowered blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing rate; skin rash and itching; constipation; nausea; and difficulty urinating.
NON-NARCOTIC PAIN MEDICATION
Most non-opioid analgesics are classified as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). They are used to treat mild pain and inflammation or can be combined with narcotics to treat severe pain. Possible side effects of NSAIDs are stomach upset, bleeding in the digestive tract, and fluid retention. These side effects usually are not seen with short-term use. Let your doctor know if you have heart, kidney, or liver problems. Examples of NSAIDs include ibuprofen, Motrin®, Aleve®.
PAIN CONTROL WITHOUT MEDICINE
Splinting your stomach by placing a pillow over your abdomen with firm pressure before coughing or movement can help reduce the pain.

Distraction helps you focus on other activities instead of your pain. Listening to music, playing games, or other engaging activities can help you cope with mild pain and anxiety. Splinting Your Stomach

Guided imagery helps you direct and control your emotions. Close your eyes and gently inhale and exhale. Picture yourself in the center of somewhere beautiful. Feel the beauty surrounding you and your emotions coming back to your control. You should feel calmer.
