Anesthesiological Management of Hemodynamics and Gas Exchange for Retroperitoneal Adrenalectomies

This study is a prospective, perioperative evaluation of hemodynamic and respiratory parameters in patients undergoing retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomies.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Conditions

Detailed Description

Due to their underlying disease, patients with adrenal tumors are prone to episodes of hyper- and hypotension. Furthermore, excessive hypercarbia and an increased arterial-alveolar CO2 difference can be seen during these operations.
