Effect of Console Time on the Development of Acute Kidney Injury in Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
Effect of Console Time on the Development of Acute Kidney Injury in Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
Robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) is the gold standard surgical technique in prostate surgery. Many Robotic-laparoscopic surgical techniques also require the intraoperative deep Trendelenburg position and intravenous fluid restriction during surgery. However, the possible side effects of the deep Trendelenburg's position and the fluid restriction on the cardiovascular and renal systems during surgery are unknown. Although the Trendelenburg position is a life-saving maneuver in hypovolemic patients, it also carries undesirable risks. Long console time may contribute to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) by prolonging the Trendelenburg time and the fluid-restricted time. In this study, investigators aimed to demonstrate the effect of console time on the development of AKI. Investigators also aimed to determine the hemodynamic risk factors that cause the development of AKI in patients monitored with the pressure Recording Analytical Method (PRAM).
Although open surgery has been used for a long time in the treatment of prostate diseases, robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) has become more common in the last 20 years. The excellence in results has made the use of the robot the gold standard in prostate surgery. However, the presence of two critical factors during RALP surgery still bothers clinicians. The first of these is severe fluid restriction and the other is the deep Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum. The prolongation of the robotic console time also causes the prolongation of fluid restriction and Trendelenburg time. This combination may cause significant pathophysiological changes in both the renal and cardiac systems and may lead to postoperative acute renal injury (AKI). AKI is a serious clinical complication with increasing incidence and is associated with adverse short-term and long-term outcomes worldwide, resulting in a large healthcare burden. Intraoperative advanced monitoring techniques can contribute to the prevention of renal damage that may occur by providing early recognition of these pathophysiological changes occurring in the renal and cardiac systems.
The aim of our study was to determine the effect of console duration on the incidence of AKI after RALP which was managed using intraoperative advanced monitoring techniques (pressure recording analytical method-PRAM). In addition, this study aimed to evaluate the ability of changes in hemodynamic parameters to predict the development of AKI in RALP patients who underwent restrictive fluid therapy.
