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 ...

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 ...

Endoscopic vein harvesting with the aid of carbon dioxide insufflation
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

Biofixation of Carbon dioxide by Chlamydomonas sp. in a Tubular Photobioreactor [PDF]
The biogas production from anaerobic digestion is a potential fuel for power generators application, if biogas can be upgraded to the same standards as fossil natural gas by CO2, H2S, and other non-combustible component removal.

Circulatory and Respiratory Complications of Carbon Dioxide Insufflation [PDF]
<i>Background:</i> Although providing excellent outcome results, laparoscopy also induces particular pathophysiological changes in response to pneumoperitoneum. Knowledge of the pathophysiology of a CO<sub>2</sub> pneumoperitoneum can help minimize complications while profiting from the benefits of laparoscopic surgery without ...

Laparoscopy-Pneumothorax and Ocular Emphysema, A Rare Complication-A Case Report [PDF]
Occurrence of Pneumomediastinum, pneumothorax, and ocular emphysema is very rare, but developed under General Anaesthesia (GA) immediately after insufflation. A defect in the diaphragm may be the cause.

Cardiovascular Effects of Peritoneal Insufflation of Carbon Dioxide for Laparoscopy [PDF]
We have investigated, in 13 artificially ventilated and anaesthetized patients, the cardiovascular effects of peritoneal insufflation of carbon dioxide preparatory to laparoscopy. Stepwise increases of intra-abdominal pressure up to a maximum of 25 cm H 2 O were accompanied by increases of ...

Medico-legal implications for carbon dioxide embolism during laparoscopic surgery: Two fatal cases
Carbon dioxide embolism is a rare complication of laparoscopic surgery resulting from direct intravascular carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation usually due to accidental organ or vessel injury during surgery.
