Comparing gas pressure settings for robotic surgery
Part of Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two different gas pressure levels used during robotic surgery to see if one is better for patients. If you are having robotic surgery, it may help doctors improve safety and recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are scheduled to have robotic-assisted surgery at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center.
- You are in good general health (classified as ASA I to III).
- You have not been taking strong pain medications (opioids) daily for the past 6 months.

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 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 study compares two types of anesthesia gas (sevoflurane) used during robotic-assisted prostate removal surgery. The goal is to see if using a lower amount of gas is as safe and effective as the standard amount, which might lead to faster recovery and fewer side effects.
This trial tests whether a special gas system (Airseal) used with very low air pressure during robotic prostate removal surgery can help patients recover better. It compares this to standard methods for men with prostate cancer.
This trial tests whether using lower gas pressure during robotic prostate surgery can reduce pain after the operation. It aims to help men recover more comfortably.
This trial compares two different air pressures used during laparoscopic appendix surgery to see if one leads to better outcomes. If you're having this surgery, the pressure level could affect your recovery, and this study aims to find which is safer and more effective.
