Intraoperative Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter Changes After Laparoscopic Surgery

Study on optic nerve changes during laparoscopic surgery.

Recruiting
18-75 years
All
Phase N/A

Laparoscopic surgery is a type of surgery that uses small cuts and a camera to operate inside the body, leading to less pain and faster recovery than regular surgery. During this surgery, doctors pump carbon dioxide gas into the belly to see better, which might increase *intracranial pressure (ICP)*, or pressure inside the head. To check ICP, doctors can measure the size of the *optic nerve sheath (ONSD)* in the eye using an ultrasound, a tool that uses sound waves to take pictures inside the body.

In this study, doctors will use an ultrasound to measure the ONSD throughout the surgery to see how the pressure changes. This technique is safe and doesn't hurt.

  • The study is for patients aged 18-75 undergoing laparoscopic surgery.
  • Patients with eye diseases or certain severe health conditions can't participate.
  • The study involves checking the eyes with an ultrasound during surgery.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
