Optical Nerve Sheath Changes During Head Down Laparoscopy
Optical Nerve Sheath Diameter Changes During Steep Trendelenburg Position for Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
Patient undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in steep trendelenburg position are at risk to develop complication from brain edema.
Ultrasound assessment of optical nerve sheath diameter is a simply, non-invasive method to estimate the increase of intracranial pressure. It is unknown how optical nerve sheath diameter changes after prolonged head down position.

Steep Trendelenburg
Patients undergoing elective laparoscopic prostatectomy in steep Trendelenburg position (25 degrees head down position)
|
In cases: ultrasound measurement of the diameter of the optical nerve sheath at (T1) baseline before the induction of general anesthesia (5 min after the beginning of mechanical ventilation in supine position); (T2) after 10 min from 25 degrees head down positioning and with pneumoperitoneum insufflation; (T3) after 60 min from T2, in head down position; (T4) after 10 min from tracheal tube removal, in supine position. In healthy controls: ultrasound measurement of the diameter of the optical nerve sheath at (T1) baseline in supine position; (T2) after 10 min from 25 degrees head down positioning; (T3) after 60 min from T2, in a head down position; (T4) after 10 min from positioning supine |

Healthy controls
Healthy awake volunteers undergoing steep Trendelenburg position (25 degrees head down position)
|
