Low vs higher pressure gas for laparoscopic surgery in children
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares using lower or higher gas pressure during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery in children. The goal is to see if lower pressure is just as safe and might cause less pain or fewer side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether using a special gas system (AirSeal) that maintains lower pressure in the belly during robotic hiatal hernia surgery can reduce shoulder pain after the operation. If you qualify, you may have less discomfort during recovery.
This study compares two different gas pressures used during laparoscopic surgery to see if lower pressure reduces shoulder pain afterward. It may help if you're having surgery to remove an ovary, fallopian tube, or ovarian cyst.
This study compares using lower gas pressure during sleeve gastrectomy surgery to see if it reduces pain or improves recovery, while still being safe. You would receive the standard surgery but with a different pressure setting in your abdomen during the operation.
This trial compares two ways of inflating the belly during keyhole surgery on the liver or pancreas. It aims to see if using lower pressure gas is safer and helps you recover faster.
This trial compares two different gas pressures used during keyhole liver surgery. The goal is to see if a lower pressure reduces bleeding or other complications while still allowing the surgeon to operate safely.
This trial compares using lower gas pressure during minimally invasive gynecologic surgery to the standard pressure. The goal is to see if lower pressure reduces pain and speeds recovery after surgery.
