In this single-blinded clinical trial, 32 patients aged 1448 were enrolled. Each patient randomly underwent tonsillectomy using the harmonic scalpel on one side and cold dissection on the other side. Operation time and bleeding volume were measured during surgery. The pain intensity level on each side was recorded on the first and seventh postoperative days.Results
The mean volume of intraoperative bleeding was 9.59 ml on the harmonic side and 74.38 ml on the cold dissection side; which represents a significantly lower amount on the harmonic side (PConclusion
Mean operation time, volume of bleeding and pain intensity level on the first postoperative day were all statistically lower on the harmonic side.Keywords:
