Abstract:
Objective To evaluate accuracy,safety and clinical practicality of three measurements for the length of biliary stent.Methods A total of 120 patients with indwelling biliary stents were randomly divided into group A,B and C by the admission time,who then received endoscopic guide wire measurement (Group A),cutting knife measurement (Group B) and formula measurement (Group C) for biliary stent length.Results There were no statistical significance in sex,age,type of primary disease and biliary stent materials (P>0.05).Operation time in group C (9.4 ± 2.47 min) was shorter than that in group A (15.8±1.71 min) and B (16.2 ± 2.22 min) with significant difference (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative cholangitis [7.5% (3/40) VS 5.0% (2/40) VS 5.0% (2/40)]or the measurement accuracy of biliary stent length [100.0% (40/40) VS 95.0% (38/40) VS 97.5%(39/40)] (P>0.05).Conclusion Three stent length measurements are accurate and safe,but formula measurement has more advantage in clinical practicality.
