Registration Number
NCT03701529
Lead Sponsor
Hallym University Kangnam Sacred Heart Hospital
Brief Summary

The present study is to evaluate the effect of anesthetic agents ( propofol , sevoflurane) on intracranial pressure of female patients undergoing laparoscopic-robotic surgery.

Detailed Description

Anesthetic agents (propofol and sevoflurane)have different effect on intracranial pressure. Sevoflurane when used over 0.5 minimum alveolar concentration, dilates intracranial vasculature and increases intracranial pressure. On the other hand, propofol decreases intracranial blood pressure and intracranial pressure is maintained or decreases.

Optic nerve sheath diameter is a feasible diagnostic tool in evaluating intracranial pressure. Female patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy or myomectomy are evaluated.

difference of optic nerve sheath diameterDuring the operation.

optic nerve sheath diameter is measured using sonographic probe. (10 minutes after induction of anesthesia/ 5 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and trendelenburg position / 20 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and trendelenburg position / 40 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and trendelenburg position / skin closure)
