Less pressure, less pain? new study tests simple change during robotic surgery
NCT ID NCT06990750
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at 70 women having robotic surgery for pelvic organ prolapse. It compared standard gas pressure (15 mmHg) to a slightly lower pressure (12 mmHg) during the operation. The main goal was to see if the lower pressure led to less pain right after surgery, without making it harder for the surgeon to see. Pain scores were recorded in the recovery room and at 1 and 14 days after surgery.
