Effects of pneumoperitoneum with carbon dioxide and helium on renal function and morphology in rats [PDF]
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of pneumoperitoneum with carbon dioxide and helium on renal function and morphology in a rat model. METHODS: Twenty four rats were randomized into three groups (n=8): gasless insufflation ('open', Pressure=0 mmHg), carbon

Artificial ventilation during pneumoperitoneum [PDF]
Laparoscopic surgery has been increasingly used in many surgical subspecialties, due to its various post-operative benefits. On the other hand, it presents intra-operative challenges to the anesthesia management. The inflation of the abdominal cavity with carbon dioxide leads to hemodynamic changes, mechanical respiratory system derangements (increased

Pneumoperitoneum associated with artificial ventilation [PDF]
Four adults injured in serious road-traffic accidents developed pneumoperitoneum after artificial ventilation. No case could be attributed to injury or to perforation of a hollow viscus in the belly, but doubt about this in one patient resulted in exploratory laparotomy.
