简要总结
This is a prospective study whereby it involves patients who are planned for bariatric surgery. In the bariatric surgery procedure, pneumoperitoneum pressure will be the experimental aspect in this study. The pneumoperitoneum pressure will be adjusted to either 8-10 mmHg of low pressure or to 12-15mmHg of standard pressure.
详细描述
This will be a prospective study in patients aged between 18 and 70 years old who have already been screened and planned for elective bariatric surgery. In bariatric surgery, a large portion of the stomach will be removed. Pneumoperitoneum is also known as the abdominal pressure which will be the experimental aspect in this study. Laparoscopy surgery will be performed by introducing the camera (optical trocar) after making an incision at the belly button (umbilicus), and carbon dioxide which will be given at a rate of 5 L/min until the intra-abdominal pressure of either 8-10 mmHg (low-pressure group) or 12-15 mmHg (standard pressure group) is achieved. The remaining three standard ports will be placed and the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy will be performed at an insufflation rate of 15 L/min. The greater omentum will be divided at the greater curvature of the stomach using an ultrasonic dissector, beginning from the proximal antrum until the fundus. The omentum will be divided close to the stomach wall hence preserving the gastro-epiploic vessels. Short gastric vessels will be divided entirely from the stomach and this dissection will continue until the left crus of the diaphragm are exposed. Endoscopic staplers will then be used to staple and divide the stomach until the angle of His. A 39Fr gastric calibration tube will be placed along the lesser curvature of the stomach, acts as a guide during the division of the stomach. Finally, the divided stomach will be removed through a 12mm port site and the incision will be closed with sutures.
Towards the end of the surgery, all residual pneumoperitoneum will be evacuated by keeping the trocar valves open under direct telescopic vision. The duration of surgery or any intraoperative complications will be recorded. The starting of surgery will be regarded after the induction of anaesthesia and the end of surgery is regarded when the end of skin closure. Operating field or also known as surgical view is defined as the view of the intra-abdomen. A clear operating field allows a good working space for the surgeon. Numeric rating score will be used to access the operating field during the surgery. Post-operative pain will be rated on a Visual Analog Scale at rest and with movement.

研究组 & 干预措施
Standard Pressure Group
Participants will undergo elective bariatric surgery. Participants under this group will be given intra-abdominal pressure of 12-15mmHg. The number of subjects anticipated for this arm will be 47. Participants in this group are expected to have an increased amount of shoulder tip pain and higher pain score postoperatively compared to low pressure group. Operating fields for surgeons are expected to be less clear.
干预措施: Pneumoperitoneum Pressure (Procedure)
Low Pressure Group
Participants will undergo elective bariatric surgery. Participants under this group will be given intra-abdominal pressure of 8-10mmHg. The number of subjects anticipated for this arm will be 47. Participants in this low pressure group are expected to encounter lesser shoulder tip pain and abdominal pain. Operating field for surgeons also expected to be better.

结局指标
主要结局
Operating Field
时间窗: It will be assessed intraoperatively (during the surgery).
Numeric rating score will be used to access the operating field during the surgery. The numeric rating score will be recorded after the surgery by the surgeon. The score ranges from 1 to 4 whereby 1 means poor space with excessive muscular contractions and unable to proceed with surgery safely. Numeric rating scale of 4 indicates good surgical space. If there was any compromise of the operating field (NOS score ≥ 3), the pneumoperitoneum pressure will be increased accordingly.
次要结局
- Duration of Surgery(The starting of surgery will be regarded after the induction of anaesthesia and the end of surgery is regarded when the end of skin closure.)
- Pain Score(The abdomen and shoulder tip pain intensity will be rated up to 48 hours postoperatively.)
