Foreign body ingestions in children and adolescents: A position paper of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) endoscopy special interest group

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a relatively frequent occurrence in the pediatric population with multiple potential sequelae. Appropriate intervention may range from urgent endoscopic retrieval to watchful waiting, with multiple variables influencing the decision.

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.

Use of single‐use ultra‐slim endoscopes for evaluation of pediatric esophageal varices: A pilot feasibility study

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal varices (EV) need monitoring in patients with portal hypertension. In 2022, a single‐use ultra‐slim (3.5 mm) gastroscope was approved for use in children and adults. This study evaluated if an ultra‐slim gastroscope could evaluate, grade, and corroborate the presence of EV in sedated pediatric patients as compared to standard oral ...

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.

Laparoscopic Methylene Blue Photodynamic Therapy for Intraabdominal Infection: A Preclinical Feasibility Study in a Rabbit Model of Perforated Appendicitis

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Perforated appendicitis commonly results in intra‐abdominal infection requiring prolonged antibiotic therapy. Intraoperative antimicrobial adjuncts are limited, and photodynamic therapy (PDT) may provide a targeted, resistance‐independent approach.

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.

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.

Improving enteral nutrition in patients requiring neurological intensive care unit care: A retrospective study on a novel bedside nasointestinal tube placement technique

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to develop and assess a bedside nasojejunal tube placement technique designed for resource‐limited settings to address the specific challenges of enteral nutrition (EN) delivery in neurocritical care patients, particularly those at high risk of reflux and aspiration. The technique sought to overcome the drawbacks of
