Effects of carbon dioxide insufflation for laparoscopic cholecystectomy on the respiratory system [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 1996
Summary The changes occurring in total respiratory system, lung and chest wall mechanics, lung volume and gas‐exchange during abdominal insufflation with carbon dioxide for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were studied. Using the technique of rapid airway occlusion during constant flow inflation together with an oesophageal balloon, we ...

Endoscopic vein harvesting with the aid of carbon dioxide insufflation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2001
Endoscopic harvesting of the long saphenous vein has been introduced to decrease the morbidity of obtaining venous conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting. Herein is described an endoscopic method using carbon dioxide insufflation into the tissues around the vein. This has several advantages; improved vision, no physical retraction required, easier

Renal Effects of Carbon Dioxide Insufflation in Rabbit Pneumoretroperitoneum Model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Endourology, 1998
To determine the effects of carbon dioxide insufflation on renal function in a pneumoretroperitoneum model, 24 adult New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups, six rabbits in each. The first group underwent a 2-hour CO2 insufflation at a pressure of 10 mm Hg in the retroperitoneal space after balloon dissection.

The effects of retroperitoneal carbon dioxide insufflation on hemodynamics and arterial carbon dioxide

The American Journal of Surgery, 1999
Laparoscopic techniques are being increasingly used for retroperitoneal surgery. However, hemodynamic and ventilatory efforts of retroperitoneal carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation have not been studied. We hypothesized that differences in absorptive surface, anatomy, and compartment compliance could result in different hemodynamic and ventilatory ...

Carbon dioxide insufflation for more comfortable colonoscopy

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1984
Forty patients examined with the use of carbon dioxide insufflation during fiberoptic colonoscopy showed no significant residual gas on plain radiographs taken 30 minutes after the procedure. By contrast, 19 of 20 patients examined with air insufflation showed excessive distension of large and/or small intestine.

Is Helium Insufflation Superior to Carbon Dioxide Insufflation in Bacteremia and Bacterial Translocation with Peritonitis?

Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 2001
To evaluate the effects of CO2 or helium insufflation on bacteremia and bacterial translocation in rats with peritonitis.Forty male Wistar-Albino rats were divided into four groups, each containing 10 rats. The rats in the first group were injected only with E. coli into their peritoneal cavities with no further manipulation.

Simplified Apparatus for Insufflation of the Tubes with Carbon Dioxide

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1946
Summary A simple apparatus for the insufflation of the Fallopian tubes is described. Carbon dioxide for the test is generated, thus eliminating the need for tanks or other source for the gas.

Hemodynamic effects of carbon dioxide insufflation during thoracoscopy

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1994
As more complex thoracoscopic procedures are performed, adequate exposure becomes increasingly more important. The insufflation of CO2 has been demonstrated to aid in the compression of lung parenchyma and the effacement of subpleural lesions, and to act as a retractor when combined with changes in patient position. However, a recent study demonstrated
