The Effect of Intraabdominal Saline Irrigation on Infectious Morbidities and Gastrointestinal Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Abdominal Hysterectomies for Benign Causes

The objective of this prospective randomised clinic study is to investigate the effect of peritoneal cavity saline irrigation during abdominal hysterectomies on postoperative infectious morbidities and gastrointestinal disturbance. The participants will be randomised to either an irrigation of abdominal cavity or the control group after vaginal closure. Assignment to one of the two treatment groups will be determined using a computer generated random numbers. Primary outcome is the rate of postoperative infectious morbidities. Secondary outcome is the rate of gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, vomiting), use of antiemetic drugs and pain score in the postoperative period. 100 patients in each treatment arm planned.
