Breathing settings during laparoscopic surgery and brain pressure
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study compares different breathing machine settings during laparoscopic (belly button) surgery to see how they affect pressure inside the skull and blood flow to the brain. If you're having surgery in a head-down or head-up position, this trial might help doctors choose safer breathing methods.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your surgery will use a head-down or head-up body position.
- You will be on a ventilator (breathing machine) during surgery, using one of the common breathing modes.
- You have no major heart, lung, or brain problems.
- You are not on blood thinners or have a bleeding disorder.
- You are able to understand and follow the study instructions.
