Filter by:Within all the surgical specialties, major surgeries are performed whenever possible, as minimally invasive procedures to reduce blood loss, reduce pain and discomfort after surgery, avoid major scars, provide a faster recovery and thus shorter hospital stay. Such minimally invasive procedures in urinary tract surgeries are often performed as laparoscopic or robotic surgeries where CO2 (carbon dioxide) is insufflated into the abdominal cavity to create a working space for the surgeon's instruments. That high pressure created in the abdominal cavity (pneumoperitoneum) to create a workspace for the surgeon start a series of physiological changes in the heart, lung and kidney. Today, most laparoscopic, and robotic operations are performed with pneumoperitoneum of approximately 12-15 mm Hg, despite the fact that international guidelines recommend the use of the lowest intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) possible allowing adequate exposure of the operative field rather than using a routine pressure level. Investigator will conduct a randomized double-blind study involving 120 patients (2 groups of 60). The first group will be operated with standard pressure in the abdominal cavity 12-15 mm Hg (high IAP), patients in the second group will be operated on with a reduced pressure of ≈ 7 mmHg (low IAP). Investigator would like to assess the practical feasibility of operating under low IAP. Quality of recovery of patients in relation to both physical and mental status, and post-operative use of pain killer will be also investigated using a validated questionnaire . Finally, Invistigator will examine the impact of IAP on post-operative renal function, and risk of kidney injury. Hypothesis is carrying out laparoscopic/robotic surgeries under low IAP can optimize the post-operative quality of recovery, decrease pain and use of pain killer, improve post-operative renal function, and decrease risk for kidney injury. On the other hand low IAP can risk overview for surgeon, make workspace smaller and raise risk of bleeding.
In this study, the changes in cerebral oxygen saturation due to low and high pressure pneumoperitoneum implementation were measured in patients who underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy. This prospective, double-blind study included 62 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) PS class I-III patients aged 18-65 years who underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy (simple, partial, or radical). Patients were randomly classified into 2 groups: Group LP (n = 31) included patients who were treated with low pressure pneumoperitoneum (8 mmHg) and Group SP (n = 31) included patients who were treated with standard pressure (14 mmHg). A standard anesthesia protocol was used in both groups. Bilateral rSO2 values were recorded at baseline, at 1 minute after induction, and then every 5 minutes until the patient went to the recovery unit. Data for mean arterial pressure (MAP), peak heart rate (HR), peripheral oxgen saturation (SpO2), and end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) were also recorded at the same time intervals. Arterial blood gas was analyzed in the 5th minute after induction (t1) while the patient was in the supine position, in the 5th and 30th minutes after insufflation (t2, t3) while the patient was in the lateral semi-oblique position, and again 10 minutes after desufflation (t4) while the patient was in the supine position. Patient demographic data, duration of anesthesia, duration of surgery, lateral position time, pneumoperitoneum time, and recovery time were also recorded. used in both groups. Bilateral rSO2 values were recorded at baseline, at 1 minute after induction, and then every 5 minutes until the patient went to the recovery unit.

Objective: It is recommended to heat and humidify CO2 in laparoscopic surgery to prevent postoperative pain and hypothermia but information about its effects on hemodynamic and respiratory parameters is limited. The investigators aimed to investigate the effects of standard and heated-humidified CO2 on hemodynamic and respiratory parameters. Study design: One hundred patients who underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign pathology were divided into two groups: Group CD (cold-dry) patients were administered standard CO2, while Group HH (heated-humidified) patients were administered 95% humidified insufflation at 37°C. Hemodynamic and respiratory parameters, body temperature, pain score and blood count parameters were recorded.
Because of cellular changes in response to ischemia and a following period of reperfusion, damages to organs and different tissues occur. There are several ongoing studies to enlighten the pathophysiological processes underlying these damages inflicted by ischemia/reperfusion. Gases (CO2) with low water content are used in pneumoperitoneum, which is a procedure to inflate the abdominal cavity with an appropriate gas for laparoscopic operations. In the current literature, it was shown that due to a restricted blood flow during the gas insufflation, ischemia develops and with the reperfusion of the organ in deflation period, oxidative stress and inflammation increases, leading to ischemia/reperfusion-related organ and tissue damages. In the proposed study, biomarkers for ischemia/reperfusion-inflicted damage will be evaluated in a biochemical and histopathological perspective in biopsy samples of ovaries from a young patient group in which hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy will be performed, laparoscopically.
During pneumoperitoneum insufflation the insufflated gas increase intra-abdominal pressure. The generated pressure can lead to a different increase in volume depending on the abdominal cavity and patients' characteristics. The primary objective is to determine the relationship between intraabdominal pressure (IAP) and intraabdominal volume (IAV) during pneumoperitoneum insufflation. The secondary objective is to determine the rate of abdominal-thoracic transmission (ATT) assessing the correlation between IAP and respiratory driving pressure (ΔPRS).
This RCT aims to investigate the real surgical effects of MBP prior to the gynecological laparoscopic surgeries. Those effects include lowest pneumoperitoneum pressure, lowest Trendelenburg inclination angle, the ease of the surgical view and the preferences of the patients with objective measures.
This study showed the difference in postoperative pain between the groups that performed surgery with the low-pressure pneumoperitoneum and the group that performed surgery in the standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum when robotic single-hole cholecystectomy was performed. The primary purpose of the study was to compare the differences in the visual analog scale (VAS) between the two groups and to demonstrate the effectiveness of pain relief after surgery. Secondly, the effect of the low-pressure pneumoperitoneum on the patient's postoperative recovery and outcome was compared with the control group by comparing the length of stay, operation time, and postoperative complications.
Introduction: In the last decades and due to improvement of medical heath care, large number of elderly persons were prevalence. Old age usually had cardiopulmonary different diseases. Biliary problems are high in old age. advancement of laparoscopic that occurred in the last years made the use of laparoscopy is available in these cardiopulmonary risk patients. many studies faced the role of laparoscopy in acute cholecystitis in elderly but no studies stated a new and a safe laparoscopic approach to the patients. Aim: compare between Fundus-Calot cholecystectomy with low pressure pneumo-peritoneum VS open cholecystectomy in Emergency cases with cardiopulmonary risk patients as regard intraoperative data and postoperative complications. Patients and methods: This study prospective randomized controlled study was conducted on 374 cases with acute cholecystitis, biliary colic, mucocele and pyocele of gall bladder in emergency general surgery department. Patients were divided into 2 groups, Group A: fundus-Calot approach (235cases) and Group B (235cases): classical open approach
Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the usual approach in dealing with cholithiasis that greatly replace open approach even in acute emergency gall bladder diseases. Laparoscopic approach has great advantages than open approach but the biliary injuries are higher in laparoscopic approach than open approach. Laparoscopic approach is condemned for many years in cardiopulmonary risk patients because of its adverse impacts on cardiopulmonary systems. Performing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with low pressure pneumoperitoneum may be effective in treatment of acute gall bladder disease but with fundus first approach than classical Calot first approach. Aim: compare between initial Fundus first cholecystectomy followed by Calot dissection VS Calot only cholecystectomy in Emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy with low pressure pneumo-peritoneum in cardiopulmonary risk patients as regard intraoperative data and postoperative complications. Patients and methods: This study prospective randomized controlled study was conducted on 470 cases with acute cholecystitis, biliary colic, mucocele and pyocele of gall bladder in emergency general surgery department. Patients were divided into 2 groups, Group A: fundus first group (235cases) and Group B (235cases): classical Calot first approach.
The negative effects of pneumoperitoneum used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy on cerebral metabolism, intracranial pressure, cardiovascular (blood pressure, heart rate, venous return) and respiratory system are known. Pneumoperitoneum formed with low (10 - 12 mmHg) intraabdominal pressure causes less fluctuations in hemodynamic and respiratory changes. Previous studies have shown that intraabdominal pressure increase is effective on cerebral metabolism, leading to increased intracranial pressure. The aim of this study is to investigate the hemodynamic effects of two different pneumoperitoneum pressure ranges (10-12 mmHg and 13-15 mmHg) on cerebral oxygenation with using Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS), which is is a non-invasive technique, in laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries.
