dc.description.abstract | PURPOSE: Closure of defunctioning loop ileostomy often is associated with division of complex peristomal adhesions through a parastomal incision with limited exposure. The goal was to determine whether sprayable hydrogel adhesion barrier (SprayGel) will reduce peristomal adhesions and facilitate closure of ileostomy. METHODS: Patients undergoing closure of loop ileostomy were randomized to have hydrogel adhesion barrier sprayed around both limbs of ileostomy for 20 cm (SprayGel group, n = 19), or to control without adhesion barrier (control group, n = 21). Ileostomy was reversed at ten weeks after construction. Extent of peristomal adhesions was scored in blinded manner (each quadrant, range, 1-3: 3 = most severe; total, range, 4-12: 12 = most severe). RESULTS: Use of adhesion barrier was associated with significant reduction in overall adhesion scores (mean, 6.11 vs. 9.67; P < 0.0005), four-quadrant adhesion scores (Quadrant A: 1.68 vs. 2.52, P = 0.002; Quadrant B: 1.42 vs. 2.33, P < 0.0005; Quadrant C: 1.42 vs. 2.24, P < 0.0005; Quadrant D: 1.58 vs. 2.48, P = 0.002), and proportion of patients with dense (scores > or = 8) adhesions (0.11 vs. 0.71; P < 0.0005). Time taken to mobilize (16.53 vs. 21.67 minutes; P = 0.008) and close ileostomy (35.37 vs. 41.90 minutes; P = 0.008) was significantly reduced. Postoperative complications were comparable. CONCLUSIONS: A sprayable hydrogel adhesion barrier placed around the limbs of a defunctioning loop ileostomy reduced peristomal adhesions and might facilitate closure of ileostomy. | en_US |
