NCT03361657

Brief Summary

Studying the arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide difference in children undergoing laparoscopic surgeries under different intra-abdominal pressures is of extreme importance. This is because both hyper and hypocarbia are detrimental in this vulnerable age group.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Correlation between the Arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide

    The arterial CO2 will be analysed from the blood gas and the endtidal carbon dioxide will be recorded from the capnography tracing.

    Intraoperative

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • PaCO2-ETCO2 Difference

    Intraoperative

  • Heart rate

    Intraoperative

  • The noninvasive systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressure

    intraoperative

Study Arms (1)

One sample

Laparoscopic surgeries will be performed according to the standard surgical and anesthesia protocols. Pneumo-peritoneum will be achieved using non-heated non-humidified CO2 with the intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) maintained at 10-12mmHg

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Children scheduled for laparoscopic surgery of Weight: 10-30 kg, Age: 1-6 years, both males and females,ASA physical status: I, II.

You may qualify if:

  • Weight: 10-30 kg.
  • Age: 1-6 years.
  • Sex: both males and females.
  • ASA physical status: I, II.
  • Operation: elective laparoscopic surgeries that last more than 45 min.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients will be excluded if they have;
  • Patients with any perioperative cardiovascular or respiratory event occurred which made the study intervention clinically unacceptable,
  • Patients with unsatisfactory preoperative peripheral arterial oxygen saturation,
  • Patients with unsatisfactory preoperative hemoglobin level, neurological or psychiatric disease,
  • Children with a BMI \>95th percentile for age.
