Laparoscopic (closed) surgery provides several advantages over open surgery, such as smaller surgical incisions, postoperative recovery, and shorter hospital stay. However, increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) during surgery may have adverse effects on some systems such as circulation and respiration. Increased IAP may reduce blood return to the heart. Some studies have shown that some values calculated from surface electrocardiography are associated with changes in heart rhythm. Changes in blood pressure, nervous, and hormonal systems that may be seen due to increased IAP in laparoscopic surgery may cause arrhythmias in patients.Therefore, researchers aimed to investigate the effects of increased IAP on electrocardiography in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Timeframe: EECG recordings will be taken immediately before surgery, before and immediately after intra-abdominal CO2 insufflation, 2 minutes after reverse Trendelenburg, immediately after the patient is awakened, and at the 2nd hour after surgery.
