Cdyn was calculated as TV / (Ppeak -PEEP) at T1 (after intubation), T2 (10 min after
pneumoperitoneum), T3 (40 min after
pneumoperitoneum), and T4 (10 min after
pneumoperitoneum stopped).
After 10, 20, 30, and up to 40 minutes of
pneumoperitoneum, H.R.
With the increasing use of laparoscopy for different kinds of surgical procedures, it has become imperative to identify and minimize the complications associated with first port and creating a
pneumoperitoneum. The rationale of doing a study on this topic is to compare the two different access techniques and identify, if possible, the procedure with minimum complication.

pneumoperitoneum. Ann R Coll Surg Engl 2012; 94: 246-248.
Abdominal radiographs can raise suspicion for obstruction by demonstrating dilated colon and the presence of intramural bowel gas or
pneumoperitoneum. A CT study of the abdomen and pelvis is the gold standard for diagnosing large-bowel obstruction and can be useful in delineating the etiology and location of the obstruction.
Three consecutive failures in saline test were taken as 'Failed technique', and the case was converted to open method of
pneumoperitoneum. Free flow of saline through the needle was taken as successful placement.
T1--arrival at the operating room, T2--5 min before skin incision, T3--5 min, T4--10 min, T5--15 min after
pneumoperitoneum, Mean difference--Mean of Group C minus mean of Group P, Group P--preemptive hydromorphone group, Group C--control group.
He was diagnosed with colonic barotrauma secondary to insufflation of jet air through the rectum causing tension
pneumoperitoneum.
However preoperative optimization of cardiac status, administration of balanced anaesthesia, proper intraoperative monitoring and low pressure
pneumoperitoneum are essential steps to patient safety.

'A CT scan done on February 15 indicated the patient had a gaseous abdomen band while another CT scan on February 16 indicated she had severe
pneumoperitoneum, indicating a perforated hollow viscus,' a court document reads.

pneumoperitoneum was created and maintained during surgery.
