The Effect of Intrabdominal Pressure in Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery

Our study included 80 female patients with ASA (American Society of Anesthesia) II-III, who were planned to undergo laparoscopic sleeve gasterctomy or bypass operation after ethics committee approval. BMI (body Mass Index)> 35, 18-65 years old, female, non-smoker, not undergoing revisional bariatric surgery, and not undergoing major abdominal surgery before were included. Propofol 2mg/kg, Remifentanil 1mcg/kg, and rocuronium 0.6mg/kg were administered to the patients by monitoring with ECG, pulse oximetry and non-invasive blood pressure measurement, which we performed in bariatric surgery patients in our clinic. The corrected weights of the patients were used in dose calculations as recommended by the Society of Bariatric Anesthesia. Immediately after intubation, while the patient was lying in the supine position, intra-abdominal measurement was taken from the bladder catheter and recorded. Then, after the surgical site antisepsis, when the trocar required for the operation was placed by the general surgeon, another measurement was made from the trocar port. The measurements were recorded. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, maintenance fluids, and complications were recorded every 5 minutes intraoperatively. Postoperative hospital stay of the patients, urine output, onset time of bowel movements, and all complications were recorded.

SPSS 21.0 computer program was used for statistical analysis. The normality of the distribution of the data was evaluated with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Intergroup data will be evaluated by one-way ANOVA, and in-group data will be evaluated with repetitive ANOVA test. Chi-square was used in the analysis of ordinal data. P < 0.05 will be considered as a statistically significant difference. The sample size was calculated as 80 patients at 90% confidence interval.
