Place and duration of study: Department of Surgery, Nishtar hospital Multan during December 2003 to November 2004. Patients and methods: A total of 50 cases of typhoid perforation which presented in less than 24 hours after perforation. The patients were divided into two groups of 25 patients each in double blind randomized pattern. In one group ileostomy was done and in the other group primary repair was done. Results: The mortality rate in the ileostomy was 8% and the morbidity rate was 56%. In the patients with primary repair the mortality rate was 12% and the morbidity rate was 24%. Conclusion: If patient present within 24 hours after perforation provided that the patient is in good general health and with no other concomitant illness primary repair of the typhoid perforation should be done in every patient.

Background and Aim: The general health of  the mothers of children using hearing aids is highly important, and can affect their children’s progress in hearing rehabilitation programs. This study aimed to compare the general health of  the mothers of children using cochlear implants (CIs), mothers of children using hearing aids (HAs), and mothers with normal hearing (NH) children. Methods: In this descriptive-comparative study conducted on the mothers of children using CIs (n = 19), HAs (n = 19), and NH (n = 15). Their general health was measured by the 28-item general health questionnaire (GHQ-28) in four areas of physical symptoms, anxiety symptom, social dysfunction symptom, and depression symptom. Results: The general health of the mothers of children using CIs was significantly higher than that of the mothers with children using HAs  (p = 0.02), while it was lower than that of the mothers with NH children, but it was not statis­tically significant (p = 0.5). Conclusion: Mothers of children using CI chil­dren have higher general health than the mothers with children using HA, and its level was close to that of the mothers with NH children. Cochlear implantation and consequently improved comm­unication is effective in improving the general health of the hearing-impaired children’s moth­ers.
