@naxlex_nursing_prep: 🩺 Cholecystectomy Explained! The gallbladder stores bile to help digest fats. When it becomes inflamed or develops gallstones, it may need to be removed through a procedure called a cholecystectomy. 🔹 Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy ✅ Small incisions ✅ Less pain ✅ Faster recovery ✅ Minimal scarring ✅ Most common approach 🔹 Open Cholecystectomy ✅ Larger incision under the ribs ✅ Used for complicated cases or when laparoscopy isn’t safe ✅ Longer recovery time 💡 NCLEX Tip: After surgery, monitor for signs of infection, bleeding, bile leakage, and encourage early ambulation, deep breathing, and pain management to reduce complications. 📚 Subscribe to Naxlex Nursing for more! 🌐 nursing.naxlex.com
