Fetal Response to Carbon Dioxide Pneumoperitoneum in the Pregnant Ewe

Abstract: The sheep fetus has sufficient placental flow reserves or compensatory responses to maintain adequate gas exchange during a 1-hour, 20 mmHg maternal pneumoperitoneum. Laparoscopic surgical procedures may prove to be a safe alternative to laparotomy during pregnancy.

“…We and others have previously shown that maternal CO 2 insufflation can produce significant fetal hypercapnia and acidosis [1,3,6,17]. Our results suggest that these physiologic effects may have long-term fetal consequences.…”

“…However, despite an increased clinical interest in the effects of abdominal insufflation during pregnancy, few experimental studies have been designed to assess the consequences of insufflation on maternal and fetal well-being. Most of the studies performed in animals have confirmed the clinical suspicions that carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) pneumoperitoneum can produce significant alterations in maternal and fetal blood gases [1,3,6,17]. The significance of these transient effects remains unclear, since none of the studies has assessed the long-term postnatal consequences associated with maternal pneumoperitoneum.…”

“…Se trata de un riesgo que es mayor durante la entrada primaria, el cual puede reducirse al utilizar visión directa con cámara (32,33). Respecto al CO2 y su absorción fetal, ha sido estudiado y no se considera un factor de riesgo en la actualidad (34)(35)(36)(37). Las presiones intra-abdominales de CO2 se manejaron en un rango de 15 a 20 mmHg.…”

“…Some animal studies have confirmed fetal acidosis with associated tachycardia, hypertension, and hypercapnia during CO 2 pneumoperitoneum [83][84][85]. Other animal studies have demonstrated no fetal acidosis [86]. Regardless, no long-term adverse effects have been identified [83][84][85][86].…”
