May support low IAP with complete NMB to reduce complications in urologic laparoscopy; leaves open need for RCT confirmation.
Does low intra-abdominal pressure with complete neuromuscular blockade reduce post-operative complications in patients undergoing major laparoscopic urologic surgery?
Using low intra-abdominal pressure with complete neuromuscular blockade during major laparoscopic urologic surgery is feasible and significantly reduces post-operative complications, including acute kidney injury.
