Trial summary

Pneumoperitoneum created during laparoscopic surgeries has some effects on human physiology. Increased intraabdominal pressure results in increased intrathoracic pressure, and eventually may result in increased intracranial and intraocular pressures. Read more about this study

About this study

Pneumoperitoneum created during laparoscopic surgeries has some effects on human physiology. Increased intraabdominal pressure results in increased intrathoracic pressure, and eventually may result in increased intracranial and intraocular pressures. In this study we aimed to identify intraocular and intracranial pressure changes during the perioperative period due to the pneumoperitoneum created for laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries. Intraocular pressure will be measured directly from the eye. Intracranial pressure will be estimated by measuring optic nerve sheath diameter changes ultrasonographically.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Intraocular pressure measurement via ocular tonometryDiagnostic test

    Also called Optic nerve sheath diameter measurement via ultrasound

    Intraocular pressure and optic nerve sheath diameter changes of the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be measured throughout the surgery at different times using ocular tonometry and ultrasound, respectively.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intraocular pressure

    The normal physiological value for intraocular pressure is 10-20 mm Hg. It is affected by pneumoperitoneum created for laparoscopy. The pressure will be measured via ocular tonometry through the eye during the surgery at predetermined time intervals.

    Measured: Throughout the operation (usually about 1 hour).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Intracranial pressure

    The normal physiological value for intracranial pressure is below 10 mm Hg. It is affected by pneumoperitoneum created for laparoscopy. The pressure will be estimated through changes in the optic nerve sheath diameter which will be measured by ultrasonography through the eye during the surgery at predetermined time intervals.

    Measured: Throughout the operation (usually about 1 hour).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intraocular Pressure and Intracranial Pressure, run by Marmara University.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intraocular pressure (time frame: Throughout the operation (usually about 1 hour).). 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 3 Dec 2021.
