Abstract
This study aimed to assess the effect of pneumoperitoneum and, thereby, raised intra-abdominal pressure for different durations (≤ 1 h, 1–3 h and > 3 h) on renal function. One hundred and twenty adult patients were allocated to four groups—the Control Group A (N = 30; patients undergoing non-laparoscopic surgery) or Group B (N = 30; patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery with duration of pneumoperitoneum < 1 h) or Group C (N = 30; patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery with duration of pneumoperitoneum 1–3 h) or Group D (N = 30; patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery with duration of pneumoperitoneum > 3 h). The baseline, intraoperative (at the end of pneumoperitoneum/surgery), and postoperative (after 6 h) values of blood urea levels, creatinine clearance, and serum cystatin C were compared. The results showed that the raised IAP (10–12 mmHg) and varying durations of pneumoperitoneum (from less than 1 h to more than 3 h) did not significantly affect renal function measured in terms of change in serum cystatin levels from baseline to 6 h in postoperative period. The varying durations of pneumoperitoneum also did not significantly affect serum creatinine or blood urea levels in the postoperative period. CTRI registration: CTRI/2016/10/007334.
