Document Summary
Cystectomy: removal of the gallbladder and any stones in the gallbladder or the cystic duct. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy: thin tube-like instrument with an attached light and a lens, is inserted through a small incision, near the belly button (peritoneal cavity). Then the abdomen is inflated with carbon dioxide to provide a better view of the operative area. Three additional incisions are made near the laparoscope through which special surgical instruments are inserted. Guided by the internal images obtained by the laparoscope that are projected onto video monitors. Open cholecystectomy: incision is made and gall bladder is removed by surgeon. Cefazolin: inhibits cell wall synthesis promoting osmotic instability, usually bacterial. Hydrocodone: inhibits prostaglandins and peripherally blocks pain impulse generation. Answer: birth control: known risk factor for it is found to contribute to hypercoagulability of the blood which is one of the major factor of the development of dvt. Breath sounds clear upon auscultation with bilaterally equal expansion.
