Trial summary

Clinic and metabolic consequences of pneumoperitoneum, achieved by insufflation of gas carbon dioxide, are still debated. Cardiovascular system suffering due to the compression of intra-abdominal venous structures can cause life-threatening complications. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Laparoscopic Surgery: Comparison of Intraoperative Hemodynamic Parameters and Arterial-blood Gas Changes at Two Different Pneumoperitoneal Pressure Values

Clinic and metabolic consequences of pneumoperitoneum, achieved by insufflation of gas carbon dioxide, are still debated. Cardiovascular system suffering due to the compression of intra-abdominal venous structures can cause life-threatening complications. Increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide induces metabolic acidosis with further vascular suffering. Pneumoperitoneum reduces the pulmonary exchange volumes and bring renal suffering.

Methods. The aim of this study is to evaluate the alterations in hemodynamic and hemogasanalysis parameters during the laparoscopic surgery at different pressure settings of pneumoperitoneum in order to assess the best pressure value.

We evaluated and compared intraoperative hemodynamic and hemogasanalytic alterations in two groups of patients respectively subdue to laparoscopic cholecystectomy at a pneumoperitoneum pressure of 12 mmHg (group A) and at a pressure of 8 mmHg (group B).

Read the detailed description

We evaluated intraoperative hemodynamic and hemogasanalytic alterations in two groups of randomized patients respectively operated at a pneumoperitoneum pressure of 12 mmHg (group A) and at a pressure of 8 mmHg (group B) to highlight any significant alterations.

The clinical sample used in the study is composed by patients aged between 15 and 85 years affected by cholelithiasis and treated with laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the period between July 2019 and February 2020.

20 patients, 9 men and 11 women, were enrolled. Group A included 10 patients, 5 men and 5 women, with an average age of 47.9 years. Group B included 10 patients, 4 men and 6 women, with an average age of 50.7 years.

The parameters evaluated were: heart rate (HR), average arterial blood pressure (BP), respiratory frequency (RF), oxygen saturation (SaO2), hemogasanalysis (PaO2, PaCO2, pH and HCO3-).

The measurements were made at four stages: before the induction of anesthesia, after the anesthesia induction but before incision, 30 minutes after the pneumoperitoneum induction, 5 minutes after the pneumoperitoneum releasing.

The hemodynamic parameters (HR, RF, BP, SaO2) were extrapolated from the multiparameter monitor for each evaluation. The hemogasanalytic values (PaO2, PaCO2, pH and HCO3) were evaluated by the radial arterial sampling. The average and standard deviation were calculated for the quantitative data normally distributed. For the comparison of the quantitative data, the t-student test was used. A value of p ≤ 0,05 was considered statistically significant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pneumoperitoneum, run by Eva Intagliata at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 inclusion and 0 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 10 May 2022. 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 Italy. 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?

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?

hearth rate (time frame: before the induction of anesthesia). The study lists 20 primary outcomes in all. 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 10 May 2022.
