Low Versus Standard Pressure Pneumoperitoneum on Shoulder Tip Pain
A Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) Comparing the Effect of Low Versus Standard Pressure Pneumoperitoneum on Post-operative Shoulder Tip Pain in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Gynecologic Surgery for Benign Indications
Mount Sinai Hospital, Canada
82 participants

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This proposed study is a single-center, double blind, parallel group RCT comparing the use of low (10 mm Hg) versus standard pressure (15 mm Hg) pneumoperitoneum at the time of benign gynecologic laparoscopic surgery. Patients will be randomized to the control group (standard pressure) or the intervention group (low pressure) and surgeons will be blinded to the study pressure. Data on post-operative recovery and pain scores will be recorded for each patient.
