Intraoperative Blood Loss Under Standard Versus Low Pneumoperitoneum Pressure During Laparoscopic Liver Resection.

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Commonly the pressure of about 14 mmHg is applied during laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) with moderate neuromuscular blockade. Lowering the pneumoperitoneum pressure combined with deep neuromuscular blockade may sustain optimal operating space with providing better short-term postoperative results. It has been proved in randomized controlled trials in colorectal or bariatric patients, however there is lack of similar data for laparoscopic liver resection. Doubts about lowering the pneumoperitoneum pressure too hasty are supported by apprehension of worse bleeding control during liver parenchyma transection and its impact on postoperative results. The aim of the trial is to assess the impact of standard (14 mmHg; arm 1) versus low (10 mmHg; arm 2) pneumoperitoneum pressure on intraoperative blood loss, what will be the primary outcome. As secondary endpoints following outcomes will be measured: quality of operating space, intraoperative adverse events, quality of recovery, postoperative renal function, 30-day postoperative complications rate, length of hospital stay. The investigators assume that lower pneumoperitoneum provides non-inferior blood loss control during laparoscopic liver resection with better postoperative results.
