PURPOSE

Our aim is to evaluate the tolerance to pneumoperitoneum of pediatric patients during laparoscopic renal surgery and to

determine the risk factors of perioperative complications.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

From January to November 2013, we collected ventilatory, hemodynamic and temperature data, before and

during insufflation, of all patients undergoing laparoscopic renal surgery. Paired data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon

test and independent data with U-Mann-Whitney test.

RESULTS

We studied 21 patients with a mean age of 47.2 months and mean weight of 20.8Kg. All patients had a good

preoperative status. Mean operative time was 135.24 minutes. Mean insufflation pressure was 12.1mmHg at an average

speed of 3L/min.

Volume-controlled ventilation was set in 81% of patients. Respiratory rate was increased in 71% of patients with a

mean of 1.6±2.6 rpm. Recruitment manoeuvres were performed in 57% patients. PEEP was applied in all patients.

Compliance decreased in all patients (p<0.05). Peak inspiratory pressure and platteu pressure increased in 90% of

patients (p<0.05).

ETCO2 increased in 90% of patients by an average of 3,95±2,7mmHg(p<0,05). The increased was considered mild,

always <10mmHg. The greater variations were in cases of lower values of ETCO2 before the insufflation (p=0.001).

Oxygen saturation was over 97% in all patients.

Mean arterial pressure increased in 90% of patients by an average of 8.10±9.5. Heart rate decreased in 76% of patients

by an average of 7.76±8.7(p<0.05).

The evolution of hemodynamic and respiratory parameters was not related to the length of surgery, the pressure applied

to the pneumoperitoneum, the weight of the patient nor the ventilation mode applied (p>0.05).

Warming measures were applied in 81% of patients. Temperature decreased an average of 0.15ºC.

There were no surgical or anaesthetic complications and postoperative critical care was not required in any case.

CONCLUSIONS

In our study there was a good tolerance to higher insufflation pressures. Hemodynamic, respiratory and temperature

parameters remained within physiological ranges.
