Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyGastric distension with SLIPA versus LMA ProSeal during laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a randomized trial.
We compared the quantitative clinical performances of the streamlined liner of the pharynx airway (SLIPA) and the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (LMA ProSeal) regarding intensity of gastric distension in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. ⋯ SLIPA is as efficacious as LMA ProSeal for use in patients without severe complications who are undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Randomized Controlled TrialCardiorespiratory effects of balancing PEEP with intra-abdominal pressures during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Applying appropriate positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) to corresponding intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) can improve gas exchange during capnoperitoneum without any hemodynamic effects. ⋯ Application of appropriate PEEP corresponding to the IAP helped maintain CO2 elimination and improved oxygenation without any hemodynamic disturbance in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
