Filter by:This is a prospective study whereby it involves patients who are planned for bariatric surgery. In the bariatric surgery procedure, pneumoperitoneum pressure will be the experimental aspect in this study. The pneumoperitoneum pressure will be adjusted to either 8-10 mmHg of low pressure or to 12-15mmHg of standard pressure.
Laparoscopic surgery is now widely established.Laparoscopic surgery involves insufflation of a gas (usually carbon dioxide) into the peritoneal cavity producing a pneumoperitoneum. The raised intra-abdominal pressure of the pneumoperitoneum, alteration in the patient's position and effects of carbon dioxide absorption cause changes in physiology, especially within the cardiovascular and respiratory systems.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the level of pain 2 hours after surgery in patients after the use of the AirSeal® Insufflation System (AIS) at a high or low pressure setting or the standard insufflator (the conventional insufflation system, or CIS). "Insufflation" is the creation of a pressure barrier of air/gas within the abdomen that allows the surgeon more space to work in.
The investigators want to test the hypothesis that the addition of a recruitment manoeuvre to a low pressure pneumoperitoneum will lead to an additional reduction in postoperative pain. Therefore the investigators will conduct a prospective randomized controlled, single blind trial.
Optimizing all factors that increase the intra-abdominal volume and performing an individualized strategy should allow us to reduce the pneumoperitoneum insufflation pressure while maintaining optimal surgery conditions for a laparoscopic colorectal surgery, compared to the standard strategy of maintaining fixed intra-abdominal insufflation pressures (12-15 mmHg).
This study seeks to evaluate post-operative patient pain and quality of life, and intra-operative hemodynamic status and changes in inflammatory markers, with use of a pressure-barrier insufflator and conventional insufflator at high and low pneumoperitoneum pressure settings.
A prospective, randomized, controlled single-center clinical Study designed to evaluate Physician Preference related to the use of the SurgiQuest AirSeal® Insufflation System (AIS) at low vs. higher pressures for the Management of pneumoperitoneum. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 treatment device to control ratio into one of two (2) different study arms: 1. AIS with an insufflation pressure target of 9mmHg ±1mmHg; or 2. AIS with an insufflation pressure target of 15mmHg ±1mmHg.
The Palmer's point and periumbilical region are the common laparoscopic entry site to establish the pneumoperitoneum. In the present study, the investigators assess the safety and feasibility of Meng's point as a new laparoscopic entry site in cases to perform the gastrointestinal surgery. This prospective and randomized study will compare the three entry techniques with regard to: - Complications related to the entry technique - Time taken to enter the abdomen. - The number of attempts taken to enter the abdomen
The steep trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgery have the potential to cause an adverse effects on respiratory mechanics and gas exchange. Autoflow-volume controlled ventilation may improve lung compliance and reduce airway peak pressure. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate whether Autoflow-volume controlled ventilation improves gas exchange and respiratory mechanics in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the post-operative recovery quality of the Individualized Pneumoperitoneum Pressure Therapy in Colorectal laparoscopic surgery versus standard therapy using a quality validated scale of postoperative recovery of their stay in the Post-Anaesthesia Recovery Unit.
