Effect of Low-pressure Pneumoperitoneum on Pain and Inflammation Post Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Randomized, Double-blinded, Controlled, Clinical Trial.
Effect of Low-pressure Pneumoperitoneum on Pain and Inflammation Post Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Randomized, Double-blinded, Controlled, Clinical Trial.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum on post operative pain and inflammation in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy by comparing it to standard practice.
After obtaining informed consent from eligible study participants. patients were randomized into one of two masked groups, labelled red and green. The red-label group was operated at standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum, while the green-label group was operated at low-pressure pneumoperitoneum. Baseline blood samples were obtained pre-operatively for ten inflammatory markers, patients' demographics and intra-operative details collected, then post-operative pain and change in inflammatory markers were followed.
