Impact of Overweight and Pneumoperitoneum on Hemodynamics and Oxygenation during Prolonged Laparoscopic Surgery
2006
Background
Anesthesia adversely affects respiratory function and hemodynamics in obese patients. Although many studies have been performed in morbidly obese patients, data are limited concerning overweight patients [BMI 25–29.9 kg m−2]. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of prolonged pneumoperitoneum in Trendelenburg position on hemodynamics and gas exchange in normal and overweight patients.
