Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main study observed changes in forehead skin blood flow measured by the laser flowmeter together with cerebral oxymetry (rsO2) at the 9 measuring points including start of surgery, just after start of pneumoperitoneum, just pre- and post TP (-15 degree), 10 and 20 minutes after TP, just pre- and post-postural change, and end of surgery. The supplement study compared the changes in them together with forehead skin temperature between patients pretreated with acetazolamide 5 mg/kg IV and placebo at the commencement of anesthesia.
