[Special features of laparoscopic operations from an anesthesiologic viewpoint: a review].
The value of laparoscopic procedures has increased over the last decade. Many patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery also have coexisting diseases. The hemodynamic effects of intraperitoneal carbon dioxide insufflation depend on the extent of intraperitoneal pressure, severity of preexisting cardiopulmonary diseases, volume state of the patient and alterations of acid-base balance due to a capnoperitoneum. In addition to endocrinologic reactions, patient positioning also affects hemodynamic parameters. In high risk patients extended cardiopulmonary monitoring with an arterial line and repeated blood gas analysis is recommended intraoperatively, in addition to assessment of end-expiratory CO(2). In this patient group the intra-abdominal pressure should be maintained in the range of 5-7 mmHg.
