Predictors of complications in laparoscopic surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at factors that may predict complications after laparoscopic surgery (minimally invasive surgery with a camera) when the patient is tilted head-down (Trendelenburg position). It focuses on surgeries lasting longer than 2 hours.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult with an ASA physical status classification of I to IV (generally healthy to very ill).
- You are scheduled for laparoscopic surgery (keyhole surgery) while tilted head-down (Trendelenburg) for more than 2 hours.
- Your doctor plans to place an arterial line (a small tube in an artery to monitor blood pressure closely).
- You are not pregnant.
- You are not on dialysis for kidney failure (renal replacement therapy).

This study checks how well a breathing monitor matches blood carbon dioxide levels during laparoscopic surgery, where you are tilted head-down. It aims to improve monitoring of your breathing during surgery.
This study looks at patients who've had major abdominal, bone, or blood-vessel surgery to understand what factors make some people more likely to have complications afterward. It analyzes information already collected from hospitals to help doctors better predict and prevent problems.
This study checks how well a simple arm cuff (non-invasive blood pressure monitoring) works compared to a more direct method using a small tube in an artery during laparoscopic surgery in a head-down position. The findings could help make blood pressure monitoring more accurate and comfortable for future patients.
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.
This study looks at how different breathing machine settings during laparoscopic surgery affect the lungs. It will help doctors make ventilation safer for patients, especially those with lung issues.
This study follows people after planned, higher-risk surgery to learn what complications happen and how patients do long-term. It may help doctors predict risks and improve care for people having similar operations.
