About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter in Children Undergoing Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery at Low and Standard Gas Insufflation Pressures

Objective: This study investigates the impact of carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum on optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) and intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy. Previous research suggests that pneumoperitoneum can lead to elevated ICP, with the standard intracranial monitoring technique being invasive intraventricular catheter placement. In contrast, bedside ultrasound assessment of ONSD offers a noninvasive alternative for detecting increased ICP.

Methods: The Hypothesize will be standard gas insufflation pressure significantly increases ONSD, while low-pressure insufflation will maintain ONSD levels. The primary aim is to compare ONSD variations pre- and post-CO2 insufflation in patients subjected to both low-pressure and standard-pressure laparoscopic surgery. Secondary aims include evaluating end-tidal CO2 measurements between the two groups.

Read the detailed description

It has been shown in many studies that pneumoperitoneum containing carbon dioxide (CO2) during laparoscopy increases intracranial pressure (ICP). (1) Evaluation of the Effect of Intraabdominal Pressure on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter in Patients Undergoing Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy. The standard technique for monitoring ICP is the placement of an intraventricular catheter connected to an external pressure transducer. (2) Bedside evaluation of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) with ultrasound technique is a more practical and noninvasive method used to determine high ICP (>20 mmHg). The anatomical continuity of the dura with the optic nerve sheath (ONSD) allows the use of this technology, and thus an increase in ICP can be transmitted from the subarachnoid space to the ONSD. (3)

Low-pressure pneumoperitoneum reduces analgesic consumption after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in studies, but the effect of standard and low intraabdominal pressures on ICP has not yet been clarified. (4)

In our thesis, assuming that standard gas insufflation pressure will increase ONSD, but low gas insufflation pressure will not cause a change, the primary aim was to compare ONSD between two groups of low-pressure and standard-pressure laparoscopic surgery before and after CO2 insufflation preoperatively. Second, the end-tidal CO2 measurements between the two groups will be evaluated.

What participants receive

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

  • Using low or standart pressureProcedure or surgery

    Written consent will be obtained before the randomized study. Randomization will be done on the computer using a software program. Participants will be divided into two groups. Patients in Group S will undergo laparoscopy under standard pressures (12-16 mmHg) in laparoscopic surgery, while patients in Group L will undergo laparoscopy under low pressure (8-10 mm Hg).

What is being measured

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

  1. Optic nerve sheath diameter

    For the measurement of ONSD (Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter) a portable, software controlled, ultrasonographic system (Micromax Ultrasound System, SonoSitelnc. Bothell, Washington, USA) 13-6 MHz 38 mm wide band linear array transducer will be used. The probe positioning will be done in the axial plane over the closed eye and ONSD will be determined by the two hyperechoic lines on the back. The outer limits will be determined by electronic calipers as hyperechoic lines behind the 3 papillae. Measurements will be taken from each eye in all patients. In order to neutralize the intraoperative variability, the average of these measurements will be taken.

    Measured: 5 min after intubation (T1). Intra-abdominal 10 min (T2) and 10 min after positioning (T3)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. CO2 measurements

    Secondary will be the evaluation of end tidal CO2 measurements between the two groups.

    Measured: after 5 minutes (T1) 10 minutes (T2), 10 minutes after position (T3)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Using low or standart pressure in people with ONSD in Laparoscopic Surgery, run by Konya City Hospital 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2025. 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. 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?

Optic nerve sheath diameter (time frame: 5 min after intubation (T1). Intra-abdominal 10 min (T2) and 10 min after positioning (T3)). 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 30 Jan 2025.
