This study aimed to assess laparoscopy's effectiveness in upper gastrointestinal (G.I.T) emergencies regarding intra-and postoperative outcomes.\n\nMethod: A retrospective observational study was conducted in the emergency departments of Zagazig University on 215 patients who had upper abdominal emergency surgeries between June 2017 and June 2020.", 'detailedDescription': "When surgical procedures are standardized, laparoscopy's benefits in a range of emergency scenarios are without question acknowledged. When only a basic strategy is set for the surgery, and the surgical approach entirely depends on intra-abdominal findings, the benefits are diminished or unknown. The evidence unequivocally supports the superiority of a laparoscopic approach in numerous emergency cases, such as acute cholecystitis, gastroduodenal perforated ulcers, infected pancreatic necrosis, and splenic injuries Laparoscopy gives the primary advantages of a shorter hospital stay, a quicker procedure, and faster recovery without complications. Rapid recovery is connected with early enteral feeding. Adequate nutritional support aids in maintaining homeostasis and, as a result, enhances immunity, thereby decreasing the incidence of wound infection. Laparoscopy should be considered with caution whenever abdominal access is considered difficult, as in cases of organ enlargement, adhesion, and bowel distension. In actuality, creating the pneumoperitoneum is an essential step in the procedure. Increased intraperitoneal pressure produces cardio-respiratory and neurological effects.\n\nIn this study, the investigators designed a retrospective observational study to present our experience in assessing the outcomes of a laparoscopic approach in emergent upper abdominal surgery in terms of intraoperative and postoperative complications."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': "Between June 2017 and June 2020, 215 patients were admitted to Zagazig University Hospital's emergency surgical unit with clinical diagnoses of upper G.I.T. emergencies, namely acute cholecystitis, perforated P.U., acute necrotizing pancreatitis, and splenic trauma.
