Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective, randomized study, which anticipatedly recruited 60 patients in the outpatient department who need hemorrhoidectomy from January 2019 to December 2019. After obtaining those patients' consent in the clinic, they were randomly assigned to two groups at a 1:1 ratio using a computer-generated list of random numbers (Microsoft Excel). One group received Botulinum toxin injection during the outpatient clinic one week before the operation(experimental group, EG), and the other group received injection during the operation(control group, CG). The two groups were compared for the influence of postoperative pain control and wound healing rate.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

botulinum toxin type A

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

In the outpatient department, patients who need hemorrhoidectomy were randomly assigned to two groups at a 1:1 ratio using a computer-generated list of random numbers (Microsoft Excel). One group received Botulinum toxin injection during the outpatient clinic one week before the operation(experimental group, EG), and the other group received injection during the operation(control group, CG). The two groups were compared for the influence of postoperative pain control and wound healing rate.

Botulinum toxin injection one week before surgery

Patients in this group underwent Botulinum toxin injection at the outpatient clinic one week before surgery

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL
