INTRODUCTION- We have earlier reported the energized disection (ED) induced addition to the surgical inflammatory response. This study is evaluating the quantitative biomolecular inflammatory changes due to ED in laparoscopic surgery (LS)
METHODS AND PROCEDURES -An open ended triple blind randomized study of consecutive unselected consenting candidates for day care Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC), an index LS
Marker | Molecule | Time |
Cytokines | IL-6, HS-CRP, TNF-∝ | H0, H4, H24 |
LiverEnzyme | SGOT,SGPT,ALP,GGT | H0, H4, H24 |
Randomization by external research coordinators ( blind to peri-operative observations) into Group A and Group B. Standard techniques of LC with or without ED being followed by operating surgeons (blind to pre & postoperative parameters / observations) for the group allocated. Energy sources were/ are available as 'stand by' / rescue.The data is being collected by non-operative research coordinators (blind to operative technique) & stored in online auto-locking ( <24 Hrs) Hospital Information System (HIS). Prospectively collected data will be analyzed at the completion of the study according to the randomization code provided to the investigators (blind to peri-operative care).

Coclusions: Appropriately analyzed results will be presented & discussed at the meeting
