Overview

Brief Summary

Laparoscopic surgery is now widely established.Laparoscopic surgery involves insufflation of a gas (usually carbon dioxide) into the peritoneal cavity producing a pneumoperitoneum. The raised intra-abdominal pressure of the pneumoperitoneum, alteration in the patient's position and effects of carbon dioxide absorption cause changes in physiology, especially within the cardiovascular and respiratory systems.

Detailed Description

The study will be carried out after approval of the ethical committee of Faculty of Medicine, Assiut University. A full preoperative anesthetic assessment will be carried out. Particular attention to the cardiovascular and respiratory systems is essential because of potential effects of the pneumoperitoneum and patient position.
