Öğe Comparing wound healing and infection risk between early and late dressing removal after abdominal hysterectomy(Springer nature, 2024) Akay, Emrullah; Irmak, Kübra; İncebıyık, Ravza; Sağlam, Fatma; Mutlu, Enes BurakIntroduction: This study evaluates the effects of dressing timing after abdominal hysterectomy on wound healing and infection risk. It highlights the potential for early dressing removal to accelerate healing and underscores the need for clear guidelines in wound care that align with the ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocol. Methods: Using a prospective, randomized, double -blind design, this research was carried out at Ba & scedil;ak & scedil;ehir & Ccedil;am and Sakura City Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey. The objective was to investigate the impact of early dressing removal on wound healing and infection rates after elective abdominal hysterectomy. Results: Demographic parameters such as age, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) were found to have no significant impact on wound healing. Patients whose dressings were removed early had shorter hospital stays. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of wound complications and hospital readmission rates. Conclusions: Early dressing removal after abdominal hysterectomy was observed to positively affect wound healing and facilitate earlier hospital discharge. However, no significant differences were found in hospital readmission rates between the two groups. These findings suggest that the dressing timing can be more flexible within the ERAS protocol and does not have a decisive impact on postoperative complications.Öğe Effects of internal iliac artery ligation on stress and urge incontinence: a retrospective evaluation(Springer, 2024) Akay, Emrullah; Gül, Alime Dilayda Uzun; Mutlu, Enes Burak; Nalbant, Ayşe Ceren; Irmak, Kübra; Ersan, FıratIntroduction: Does bilateral internal iliac artery ligation (BIIAL), a fundamental intervention in the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage, increase the risk of urinary incontinence (UI)? This study aims to shed light on the effects of BIIAL on bladder perfusion and urinary system integrity, thereby elucidating urinary function disorders following pelvic surgery. Methods: Demographic and medical data were collected from a total of 192 female patients, with and without the application of BIIAL. Urinary incontinence conditions were assessed using the Questionnaire for Urinary Incontinence Diagnosis (QUID) test. The data collection process was conducted according to ethical standards, and the results were analyzed to determine the types of incontinence. Results: In the group that underwent BIIAL, the number of pregnancies and births was statistically higher compared to the control group. A significant effect of BIIAL was seen in cases of urge urinary incontinence (UUI), while no meaningful impact was detected on stress urinary incontinence (SUI). After the BIIAL procedure, an increase in the rate of urinary leakage was seen in certain cases. Conclusion: Bilateral internal iliac artery ligation has proven to be a safe and effective intervention in the management of postpartum hemorrhage. The findings suggest a potential impact of BIIAL on UUI but not on SUI. Comprehensive and long-term prospective studies are needed to further investigate the effects of BIIAL on pelvic blood flow and bladder functions.
