Warm gas could ease recovery from keyhole surgery

NCT ID NCT00372268

Summary

This study tested whether warming and wetting the carbon dioxide gas used to inflate the abdomen during keyhole womb surgery could help prevent patients from getting too cold during the operation. It also tested if adding a local painkiller to this gas could reduce pain after surgery. The trial involved 248 women and compared four different methods of preparing the gas to see which worked best for keeping patients warm and comfortable.
