- W4312268656 abstract "Abstract Aim NICE guidelines set out the criteria for the treatment of patients with acute cholecystitis and the operative timescales for cholecystectomy. These targets were greatly affected during the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, we aimed to assess the impact that COVID-19 had on patients presenting with acute cholecystitis at a busy district general hospital. June 2020, compared with patients who presented with the same in June 2019. Method Patient cohorts were identified for matching seasons pre- and post-covid-19 (June 2019 and June 2020). Data of all patients who presented with acute cholecystitis was obtained using an electronic patient management system. Statistical analyses were performed using a Wilcoxon test. Results The results of the study indicate that waiting times post-covid are going down (p<0.05). Thus, days until cholecystectomy have decreased but the number of patients being operated on too has decreased thus further worsening waiting times for elective patients. The median and IQR's of days to surgery post-covid are 198 (121.5–278) and pre-covid are 251 (89.5–586.5). Presentations of gallstone complications almost doubled post-covid and the percentage of patients operated on decreased by over 20%. Conclusions It is clear from the data that the NICE guidance on the management of acute cholecystitis has been difficult to adhere to during the pandemic. While the time from diagnosis to operation has reduced post-covid the total number of operations has decreased drastically, putting further strain on elective waiting lists. This, inevitably, will result in further presentations of complications from gallstones and adverse patient outcomes." @default.
