About this study

Official title: The Effects of CO2 Pneumoperitoneum at Different Temperature and Humidity on Hemodynamic and Respiratory Parameters and Postoperative Pain in Gynecological Laparoscopic Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

Objective: It is recommended to heat and humidify CO2 in laparoscopic surgery to prevent postoperative pain and hypothermia but information about its effects on hemodynamic and respiratory parameters is limited. The investigators aimed to investigate the effects of standard and heated-humidified CO2 on hemodynamic and respiratory parameters.

Study design: One hundred patients who underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign pathology were divided into two groups: Group CD (cold-dry) patients were administered standard CO2, while Group HH (heated-humidified) patients were administered 95% humidified insufflation at 37°C. Hemodynamic and respiratory parameters, body temperature, pain score and blood count parameters were recorded.

Read the detailed description

The sample consisted of 100 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-II patients aged 40-65 who underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign pathology. The patients were divided into two groups according to a randomization scheme created by a computer: Group CD (cold-dry) patients were administered dry CO2 via insufflator at room temperature (21°C), while Group HH (heated-humidified) patients were administered 95% humidified CO2 insufflation at 37°C. The study was planned as a randomized and double-blind study, where patients were not informed of their group.During the operation and in the postoperative period, the patients were followed up by two different anesthetists. All patients were given information and training on the anesthesia method, the use of the patient-controlled-analgesia (PCA) device and the visual analog scale (VAS) the day before the operation. The patients' demographic data (age, weight, height, etc.) and their basal systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressures and heart rates were measured prior to the operation and recorded on the case report form.

  • Group HH (heated-humidified)Procedure or surgery

    Group CD patients were administered dry CO2 via insufflator at room temperature (21°C), while Group HH patients were administered 95% humidified CO2 insufflation at 37°C. The study was planned as a randomized and double-blind study, where patients were not informed of their group. During the operation and in the postoperative period, the patients were followed up by two different anesthetists. All patients were given information and training on the anesthesia method, the use of the patient-controlled-analgesia device and the visual analog scale the day before the operation. The patients' demographic data (age, weight, height, etc.) and their basal systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressures and heart rates were measured prior to the operation and recorded on the case report form. Both groups received the standard general anesthesia protocol. Laparoscopic surgery was performed in the same manner for all cases by AA.

What is being measured

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

  1. hemodynamic parameters: diastolic and mean blood pressure

    diastolic and mean blood pressure

    Measured: In the operation period

  2. body temperature

    body temperature

    Measured: In the operation period

  3. respiratory parameters: tidal volume

    tidal volume

    Measured: 24 hour

  2. morphine consumption

    pain

    Measured: 24 hour

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

hemodynamic parameters: diastolic and mean blood pressure (time frame: In the operation period). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04508387, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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.
