[The effect of indomethacin suppository in preventing mesenteric traction syndrome].
Mesenteric traction syndrome consists of cutaneous hyperemia with hypotension and tachycardia. NSAIDs could inhibit the phenomenon, but there are few reports about when to administer these drugs. In this study, we evaluated the effect of indomethacin on preventing mesenteric traction syndrome when administered preoperatively and just after induction of anesthesia. ⋯ The effect of indomethacin was evaluated from the extent of cutaneous hyperemia. MTS was suppressed in group P, but not in group T (P < 0.05). We concluded that indomethacin suppository just after induction could not prevent mesenteric traction syndrome.
