Body changes during laparoscopic surgery
This study looks at how your body responds during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, when your abdomen is filled with carbon dioxide gas. It checks your blood, blood pressure, breathing, and other vital signs at different times during the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your surgery is planned in advance (not emergency) and is on your abdomen.
- You are generally healthy and physically fit.
- You will receive general anesthesia (medicine to put you to sleep).
- Your surgery will use carbon dioxide gas to inflate your abdomen during the procedure.
- You do not have any heart or blood vessel disease.
