Warmed, humidified carbon dioxide insufflation versus standard carbon dioxide in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a double-blinded randomized controlled trial

Abstract

The use of warmed and humidified carbon dioxide during LCHE reduces postoperative pain at the day of operation.

Warmed, humidified CO2 insufflation benefits intraoperative core temperature during laparoscopic surgery: A meta‐analysis

“…This meta‐analysis is in agreement with a similar study by Balayssac et al . Based on a slightly different search strategy, they showed a similar increase in perioperative temperature with warmed, humidified CO 2 ; their meta‐analysis included one study using warming alone .…”

Evidence-based management of pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a PROSPECT review update

“…Only one study examined the combined use of warmed and humidified CO 2 showing improved pain scores at 6 h but no difference at Day 1 and no difference in analgesia requirement. 210…”

A comparison of postoperative pain after transumbilical single‐port access and conventional three‐port total laparoscopic hysterectomy: a randomized controlled trial

“…Although reduced postoperative pain is one of the advantages of laparoscopy compared with laparotomy, most patients who have laparoscopic surgery still need postoperative pain control, particularly during the immediate postoperative period . Accordingly, various attempts to reduce post‐laparoscopy pain have been made . Single‐port surgery requires a smaller number of incisions than conventional laparoscopy.…”
