Laparoscopic surgeries are now more popular because of the advantages such as shorter hospital stay, minimal scar. In order to perform laparoscopic surgery, pneumoperitoneum should be initiated. The optic nerve sheath is an extension of the dura mater and the subarachnoid space is continuous with the intracranial subarachnoid space. Therefore, non-invasive monitoring of the increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) can be achieved by measuring the optic nerve and sheath diameter with ultrasound. Since ONSD measurement with ultrasound is an easily applicable technique, it is useful in monitoring intracranial pressure changes based on the optic nerve diameter during intraoperative changes
Laparoscopic surgeries are now becoming increasingly common compared to traditional laparotomies, as they have advantages such as more minimal scarring, shorter hospital stay, fewer complications, and early mobilization. In these surgeries, pneumoperitoneum provided with carbon dioxide (CO2) has many effects on the cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, metabolic and cerebral systems. Pulmonary compliance and functional residual capacity decrease due to pnemoperitoneum, ventilation/perfusion mismatch occurs, and as a result, hypoxemia may occur. A minimum of 4-6 cm H20 positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) should be applied to all intubated patients under general anesthesia to reduce postoperative pulmonary complications (especially atelectasis) and prevent ventilation/perfusion mismatch and hypoxemia. The optic nerve sheath is an extension of the dura mater and the subarachnoid space is continuous with the intracranial subarachnoid space. Therefore, non-invasive monitoring of the increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) can be achieved by measuring the optic nerve and sheath diameter with ultrasound. When ICP is > 20 mm Hg, measuring the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) between 5.2 and 5.9 mm has a sensitivity of 74-95% and a specificity of 74-100%. Since ONSD measurement with ultrasound is an easily applicable technique, it is useful in monitoring intracranial pressure changes based on the optic nerve diameter during intraoperative changes (trendelenburg/reverse trendelenburg position, pneumoperitoneum , PEEP in mechanical ventilation).

Laparoscopic surgery begins with intraabdominal placement of the insufflation needle or trochar, followed by carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation of the abdominal cavity to an intraabdominal pressure (IAP) of 12 to 15 mm Hg (Normal values are 5-7 mmHg) it is aimed to monitor optic sheat nerve diameter and lung ultrasound score changes with different intraabdominal pressures.
Laparoscopic surgery begins with intraabdominal placement of the insufflation needle or trochar, followed by carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation of the abdominal cavity to an intraabdominal pressure (IAP) of 12 to 15 mm Hg. When the surgery is completed, the trochars are removed and intra-abdominal pressure is returned to normal which is 5-7 mmHg.

comparison of diameter of optic nerve sheath (ONSD) for different PEEP values with ultrasonography (Group 1: 0 cmH2O, Group 2: 5 cmH2O, Group 3: PEEP 10 cmH2O)
Time frame: Intraoperatively
comparison of diaphragmatic thickness with USG for different PEEP values
comparison of diaphragmatic thickness with USG for different PEEP values (Group 1: 0 cmH2O, Group 2: 5 cmH2O, Group 3: PEEP 10 cmH2O)
Time frame: Intraoperatively
comparison of lung ultrasound scores (LUS) via USG for different PEEP values
comparison of lung scores with USG for different PEEP values (Group 1: 0 cmH2O, Group 2: 5 cmH2O, Group 3: PEEP 10 cmH2O). This measurement calculated by LUS assigns 0 points to A lines or \< 2 separate B lines plus regular sliding; 1 point with lines B ≥ 3 or spaced focal points plus regular sliding; 2 points with coalescing B lines, and 3 points to pulmonary consolidations with a score ranging from 0 (normal lungs) to 36 (worst case scenario)
Time frame: Intraoperatively
comparison of diameter of optic nerve sheath via USG with different intraabdominal pressures.
comparison of diameter of optic nerve sheath via USG with different intraabdominal pressures. ( insufflation and desufflation) Laparoscopic surgery involves insufflation of a gas (usually carbon dioxide) into the peritoneal cavity producing a pneumoperitoneum. Normal intraabdominal pressure is 5-7 mmHg. Pneumoperitoneum is achieved by insufflation of the abdominal cavity to an intraabdominal pressure (IAP) of 12 to 15 mm Hg.
