Key result
Laparoscopic surgery requires careful anaesthetic management to mitigate the physiological stresses caused by pneumoperitoneum and extreme patient positioning.
Clinicians managing patients undergoing abdominal laparoscopic surgery must understand and manage the physiological changes arising from patient positioning and pneumoperitoneum.
Careful anaesthetic management is essential in laparoscopic surgery; leaves open optimal mitigation strategies for high-risk patients.
Laparoscopic surgery has become increasingly common with reduced postoperative pain and faster recovery. Clinicians managing patients undergoing abdominal laparoscopic surgery should appreciate the physiological changes which mainly arise from patient positioning and the effects of pneumoperitoneum.
