Carbon dioxide insufflation during withdrawal of the colonoscope improved postprocedure discomfort: A prospective, randomized, controlled trial [PDF]
In colonoscopy, the question of when and how to use carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation remains uncertain. Inspection for the pathological changes during colonoscopy takes place during the withdrawal of the scope.

METABOLIC EFFECTS OF CARBON DIOXIDE INSUFFLATION DURING LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY: CHANGES IN PH, ARTERIAL PARTIAL PRESSURE OF CARBON DIOXIDE (PACO2) AND END TIDAL CARBON DIOXIDE (ETCO2) [PDF]
Background: Laparoscopy involves inspecting the abdomen and pelvis using an endoscope. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas that is commonly used to insufflate the abdomen so as to facilitate the surgical view.

Partial amniotic carbon dioxide insufflation for fetal surgery [PDF]
AbstractPartial amniotic carbon dioxide insufflation (PACI) involves insufflating the amniotic sac with carbon dioxide (CO2) and, in some cases, draining some of the amniotic fluid. The creation of a gaseous intra‐amniotic compartment improves visualization, even in the presence of limited bleeding, and creates the work space required for complex ...

CO2 insufflation versus air insufflation for endoscopic submucosal dissection: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. [PDF]
Carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation is increasingly used for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) owing to the faster absorption of CO2 as compared to that of air.

Carbon dioxide insufflation is superior to air insufflation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography: A randomized trial [PDF]
Background: Carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation has been shown to be superior to air insufflation in colonoscopy, and double balloon enteroscopy. However, the value of CO2 insufflation in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is not ...

Technique of Carbon Dioxide Insufflation of the Wrist During Arthroscopic Bone-Grafting Procedures [PDF]
Chronic scaphoid fractures are conventionally treated with arthroscopic bone grafting. Traditional dry wrist arthroscopy avoids graft displacement caused by fluid irrigation but faces challenges such as obscured visibility from bleeding and limited ...

Anaesthesia for laparoscopic nephrectomy: Does end-tidal carbon dioxide measurement correlate with arterial carbon dioxide measurement? [PDF]
Background and Aims: Not many studies have explored the correlation between arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) and end-tidal carbon dioxide tension (ETCO2) in surgeries requiring pneumoperitoneum of more than 1 hour duration with the patient in non ...
