Optical Nerve Sheath Diameter Changes During Steep Trendelenburg Position for Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Optical nerve sheath diameter ultrasound measurement for Intracranial Hypertension and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Patient undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in steep trendelenburg position are at risk to develop complication from brain edema. Ultrasound assessment of optical nerve sheath diameter is a simply, non-invasive method to estimate the increase of intracranial pressure. It is unknown how optical nerve sheath diameter changes after prolonged head down position.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
In cases: ultrasound measurement of the diameter of the optical nerve sheath at (T1) baseline before the induction of general anesthesia (5 min after the beginning of mechanical ventilation in supine position); (T2) after 10 min from 25 degrees head down positioning and with pneumoperitoneum insufflation; (T3) after 60 min from T2, in head down position; (T4) after 10 min from tracheal tube removal, in supine position. In healthy controls: ultrasound measurement of the diameter of the optical nerve sheath at (T1) baseline in supine position; (T2) after 10 min from 25 degrees head down positioning; (T3) after 60 min from T2, in a head down position; (T4) after 10 min from positioning supine
