Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influences of carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum and operation position on intraocular pressure (IOP) during laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. Methods Thirty-six patients were divided into two groups of udergoing laparoscopic pelvic surgeries (group A) and udergoing laparoscopic cholecytectomies(group B) with 18 cases each. The patients in group A were operated under 25 degrees head-down position and those in group B under 25 degrees head-up position. IOP was recorded before surgery(T0), at 5 min after tracheal intubation (T1), 5 min after CO2 pneumoperitoneum(T2), 5 min(T3) and 30 min(T4) after body position changed and the time of normal PETCO2 regained(T5). Results IOP was remarkably decreased after induction of general anesthesia in both groups. IOP of group A raised to (21.0±1.6) mm Hg at T4, which was dropped to (14. 6±1.6) mm Hg at T5. IOP of group B raised to (12.1±2.9) mm Hg at T4,which was dropped to (11.1±1.2) mm Hg at T5. Changes of IOP of both groups were positively correlated with the changes of PETCO2. Conclusion IOP can be decreased remarkably after induction of general anesthesia with propofol. The head-up position and normal range of PETCO2 are the two important factors to avoid an increase of IOP in surgical patients under general anesthesia.
