Abstract:

Objective To analyze the effect and pain of tension-free hernia repair in elderly patients with inguinal hernia. Method 65 elderly Patients with inguinal hernia who were treated in Sheyang County People's Hospital of Yancheng City from January 2019 to February 2022 were selected as the research objects. They were randomly divided into routine group (n=32, laparoscopic hernia repair) and experimental group (n=33, hernia tension-free repair). The operation related indexes, pain and complications were compared between the two groups. Result There was no significant difference in hospitalization time between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05). The time of getting out of bed and exhausting air in the experimental group was shorter than that in the conventional group, and the hospitalization cost was lower than that in the conventional group (P ＜ 0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in pain scores between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05); After treatment, the pain score of the experimental group was lower than that of the routine group (P ＜ 0.05). The total incidence of incision infection, urinary retention, scrotal hematoma, lower extremity venous thrombosis and other complications in the experimental group was not significantly different from that in the conventional group (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion Tension-free hernia repair is effective in the treatment of senile inguinal hernia with less postoperative adverse reactions and can relieve the pain of patients.
