Ventilation Modes Effect on Intracranial Pressure During Laparoscopic Colectomy by Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter
Egypt78 participantsStarted 2022-04
Plain-language summary
Patients who undergo laparoscopic surgery often experience increased intracranial pressure (ICP). In laparoscopic colectomy surgery, the duration always exceeds 2h with more liability to changes in arterial blood gases, hemodynamics, also the patient is in Trendelenburg position about 30° head down, Trendelenburg position is believed to create changes in hemodynamics, respiratory mechanics, metabolic response, and ICP as it affects vital organs especially if steep positioning. Various modes of mechanical ventilation have been experimented to achieve good intraoperative oxygenation which may cause changes in arterial blood gas values and hemodynamic parameters that might lead to changes in the ICP. In this study we will measure ONSD, basal, intraoperative, and in the PACU to evaluate the effect of different ventilation modes (both VCV mode and PCV-VG mode) on intracranial pressure.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
