Problems such as severe pelvic pain, irregular or heavy bleeding and uterine cancer from those that may be used to treat them no choice but to remove the uterus by surgery. Abdominal pain after abdominal hysterectomy, the most common complaints of patients undergoing this type of surgery is considered.

Comparison of intradermal Dexmedmotidine and subcutaneous Ketamine for post-surgical pain management in patients with abdominal hysterectomy.

Hysterectomy after cesarean section is the second most commonly used surgery for women in the United States. One of the most common problem after hysterectomy is pain. We decided to compare the effects of dexmedmotidine or ketamine on pain in patients by a double blind randomized clinical trial on 126 female candidates for abdominal hysterectomy in three groups of 42 persons referred to Taleghani hospital in Arak.

Evaluation the efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin in preventing acute urinary retention and other obstructive urinary symptoms following colporrhaphy surgery.

Background And Aim: Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is defined as a disability in urinary excision after surgery. There are several strategies to prevent POUR, such as tamsulosin, which is a selective antagonist at alpha-1A and alpha-1B-adrenoceptors which reduces the bladder outlet resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin in preventing acute urinary retention and other obstructive urinary symptoms following colporrhaphy surgery.
