Cardiac Function and Hemodynamic Changes during Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy with Pneumoperitoneum and Steep Trendelenburg Position for Patients with Endometrial Cancer Who Are Obese
To assess the effect of carbon dioxide (CO Single-center prospective longitudinal study. University-affiliated tertiary hospital. Patients with endometrial cancer undergoing minimally invasive surgery. After consent, the patients' hemodynamic parameters were assessed by the Non-Invasive Cardiac System (NI Medical, Petah Tikva, Israel) at 5 time points: before general anesthesia, after induction of general anesthesia, after CO Twenty-three women were recruited. The median age of the patients was 68 years (interquartile range [IQR] 62-75), with a median body mass index of 34.9 kg/m Significant hemodynamic changes occur during minimally invasive staging surgery for endometrial cancer.
