Official title
Laparoscopic Entry Technique With a Veress Needle Insertion With and Without Concomitant CO2 Insufflation - Does it Matter?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Purpose: The primary objective is to compare the time required for adequate intraperitoneal insufflation (from skin incision to reaching intraperitoneal pressure of 15 mmHg). Also the number of attempts needed before successful entry is achieved. The secondary objectives will evaluate rates of secondary outcomes measures such as; failed entry, extra peritoneal insufflation, vascular injury, visceral injury, gas embolism, solid organ injury, and omental injury between the two techniques. Study design: prospective randomized control trial Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that participant's undergoing laparoscopic surgery for benign Gynecologic indications at TGH who undergo laparoscopic entry technique of Veress needle entry with concomitant CO2 insufflation will require less time to achieve a 15 mmHg of intraperitoneal pressure as opposed to Veress needle entry with subsequent CO2 insufflation, and will require less number of attempts to achieve successful entry.
