About this study

Official title: Comparison of Different EtCO2 Levels in Preventing Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in Gynecological Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Surgery

We aimed to evaluate the different ETCO2 levels (with the help of ultrasonographic optic nerve sheath diameter) in preventing gynecological laparoscopic surgeons' postoperative nausea induced by intracranial pressure change due to pneumoperitoneum and trandelenburg position.

Read the detailed description

Although gynecologic laparoscopic surgery is a preferred technique in recent years due to its minimally invasive technique, the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is 53-72%. In such operations, intra-abdominal pressure due to trandelenburg position and carbondioxide insufflation causes intra-cranial venous obstruction and intra-cranial pressure increase. In addition, intra-cranial blood flow and ultimately intra-cranial pressure increase due to gravity and increased venous return resistance (peripheral vascular resistance). Intra-cranial CO2 concentration increase results in intra-cranial vascular dilatation, followed by ICP increase. High intracranial pressure may cause an increase in the incidence of PONV after gynecological laparoscopic surgery. Measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter with USG, a noninvasive method for detecting intracranial pressure increases, has been used frequently in intensive care units in recent years. we aimed to evaluate the different ETCO2 levels (during the operation with 10 minute intervals, and also with the help of ultrasonographic optic nerve sheath diameter) in preventing gynecological laparoscopic surgeons' postoperative nausea induced by intracranial pressure change due to pneumoperitoneum and trandelenburg position.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting, run by Karadeniz Technical University at 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ahmet Besir (+90 4623775398 ext. 5398, ahmetbesir61@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

EtCO2 (time frame: During the operation (in 10 minutes interval)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Nov 2019.
