Clinical Trial: Clipless Versus Conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Using Harmonic Scalpel

U.S., March 17 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07473388) titled 'Clipless Versus Conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Using Harmonic Scalpel' on March 11.

Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial compares the operative outcomes of clipless laparoscopic cholecystectomy using a harmonic scalpel (HS) versus conventional clip-based laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CLC) in patients with gallstone disease. The primary goals are to determine if the clipless HS technique reduces operative time and intraoperative blood loss. Secondary outcomes include the length of postoperative hospital stay and the rate of port-site infections.
