Re-insufflation after deflation of a pneumoperitoneum is a risk factor for CO embolism during laparoscopic prostatectomy -A case report- [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010
Although symptomatic carbon dioxide (CO2) embolism is rare, it recognized as a potentially fatal complication of laparoscopic surgery. Sudden hemodynamic instability could be a CO2 embolism especially during insufflation.

Impact of Fetoscopic Surgery on the Myometrium: Experimental Study in an Ovine Model of Myelomeningocele

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate uterine healing at delivery after fetoscopic myelomeningocele (MMC) closure in an ovine model. Methods This descriptive study was conducted in Romane ewes. Fetal MMC lesions were created after hysterotomy at 75 days of gestation.

Carbon dioxide insufflation during withdrawal of the colonoscope improved postprocedure discomfort: A prospective, randomized, controlled trial

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012
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.

Measuring organ shift and deformation for port placement in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery

Laparoscopic, Endoscopic and Robotic Surgery, 2020
Objective: Port placement is a crucial pre-operative task in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. Due to the insufflation process, the abdominal shape is deformed while the internal organs are shifted in position.

Automated control for investigation of the insufflation-ventilation interaction in experimental laparoscopy.

PLoS ONE, 2023
In laparoscopic surgery the abdominal cavity is insufflated with pressurized carbon dioxide gas to create workspace. This pressure is exerted through the diaphragm onto the lungs, competing with ventilation and hampering it.

Effect of Hyperventilation Prior to CO2 Insufflation in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation during laparoscopic surgery may result in hemodynamic and ventilatory side effects, due to hypercarbia and elevated intra-abdominal pressure.

Determination of the optimal inspiratory pressure providing adequate ventilation while minimizing gastric insufflation using real-time ultrasonography in Chinese children: a prospective, randomized, double-blind study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2017
Background During facemask ventilation, gastric insufflation is defined as appearance of a comet-tail or an acoustic shadow on ultrasonography. Ultrasonographic measurement of antral cross-section area (CSA) may reflect an insufflated antrum and provide ...

Prospective development and validation of an objective classification for difficult facemask ventilation: the MASCAN score

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Difficult facemask ventilation is an entity that lacks a robust definition, leading to inconsistent identification in clinical practice and research. The aim of this study was to develop and validate an objective classification and numeric score for difficult facemask ventilation. Methods Four hundred patients who required tracheal
