Pre-Pandemic Predictivity of Anxious-Depressive Symptoms in Post-Surgical Traumatic Distress in Hysterectomy for Benign Disease and COVID-19 Outbreak: A Case-Control Study. J Clin Med 2024; 13:3148. [PMID: 38892859 PMCID: PMC11172625 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13113148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic led to several needed containment measures that conditioned the onset of depressive, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress symptoms in the population. These symptoms, especially if not diagnosed and treated, can also occur in patients undergoing medical care or surgery, with a high impact on people's lives and causing low adherence to treatment. The study evaluates whether the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) worsened the onset of post-surgical distress and symptoms of anxiety and depression in a population undergoing hysterectomy for benign disease during the pandemic era, comparing it with a population with the same characteristics but recruited before COVID-19. Methods: The sample was evaluated before surgery (T1), post-operatively (T2), and 3 months after surgery (T3) through a sociodemographic questionnaire and through the HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) to evaluate anxious-depressive symptoms and the PCL-5 (Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5) to assess the onset of post-surgical distress. Results: Patients treated after the COVID-19 pandemic showed a higher depressive symptoms rate compared with those treated before (p-value = 0.02); conversely, pre-COVID-19 patients were more prone to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (p-value = 0.04). A significant association between the occurrence of PTSD and anxiety-depressive symptoms registered at T2 (p-value = 0.007) and T3 (p-value < 0.0001) emerged. In the end, the COVID-19 pandemic has exerted a detrimental influence on the mental well-being of the patients under investigation, with a notable exacerbation of their mood disturbances. Conclusions: The findings advocate for the implementation of psychometric and psychodiagnostic assessments to promptly detect high-risk scenarios that could lead to PTSD, compromising treatment compliance and exacerbating the overall outcome, resulting in substantial direct and indirect burdens.

J INVEST SURG 2021; 35:918-923.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) and vaginally assisted natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy procedures in women with undescended-enlarged uteri. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted with 78 women who underwent LH (48 patients) or vNOTES hysterectomy (30 patients) for benign gynecological pathologies. The dimension of the uterus, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, the presence of peri-, postoperative complications, conversion to laparotomy, pre-, postoperative hemoglobin (Hb), and hematocrit (Hct) levels, postoperative hospital stay, total dose of postoperative analgesics, VAS scores at the postoperative 6th and 24th hours, and the final pathology reports were recorded. RESULTS There was no significant difference between LH and vNOTES hysterectomy groups regarding age (47 vs. 47.5 years, p = 0.92), parity (2 vs. 2, p = 0.74), and BMI (30.8 vs. 28.2 kg/m2, p = 0.31). The patients in the vNOTES hysterectomy group had significantly shorter durations of surgery (45 vs. 160 min) and hospitalization (48 vs. 72 h) than the LH group (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, respectively). The 24th hour VAS score was lower (VAS score 2 vs. 3, p = 0.003) in favor of the vNOTES hysterectomy group. In matched group analysis, the 24th hour VAS score (2 vs. 3, p = 0.008), operation time (45 vs. 157, p < 0.001), and hospitalization (48 vs. 72, p < 0.001) were lower in the vNOTES hysterectomy group than the LH group. CONCLUSION vNOTES hysterectomy provides favorable outcomes compared to conventional LH considering the shorter operation time, hospitalization, and lower 24th h VAS score.

J Obstet Gynaecol Res 2021; 47:1502-1509.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to identify the risk factors for vaginal cuff infection after laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynecological diseases. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study among 1559 Japanese women who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) for benign indications between 2014 and 2018 at Teine Keijinkai Hospital in Sapporo, Japan. All patients received preoperative antibiotics based on appropriate timing, choice, and weight-based dosing. We assessed the risk factors of vaginal cuff infection after TLH, including demographic and clinical variables, and patient- and surgery-related factors, using univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses. RESULTS Among all the patients who underwent TLH, 71 cases of vaginal cuff infections (4.6%) were recorded. Univariate analyses showed that current smoking, pathological result of adenomyosis, use of Seprafilm as an antiadhesive material, white blood cell counts on postoperative day (POD) 2, C-reactive protein (CRP) level on POD2 and postoperative vaginal cuff hematoma were significantly associated with an increased risk of vaginal cuff infection. In multivariate analysis, current smoking, use of seprafilm, CRP level on POD2 and vaginal cuff hematoma were significantly associated with an increased risk of vaginal cuff infection. CONCLUSION Current smoking, use of seprafilm, CRP level on POD2 and vaginal cuff hematoma were identified as significant risk factors of vaginal cuff infection in the 30 days after surgery in Japanese women who underwent TLH for benign indications.
