Study of Low Stable Pressure Pneumoperitoneum Using AirSeal for Faster Recovery After Colorectal Surgery An International Prospective Cohort on Minimally Invasive Colorectal Procedures

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are investigating the use of low stable pressure pneumoperitoneum, applied with the AirSeal Insufflator, during colorectal surgery to improve recovery. This international prospective cohort study focuses on patients undergoing minimally invasive colorectal surgery for benign or malignant conditions. The goal is to shorten hospital stays, reduce postoperative pain, and lower opioid use by optimizing the early rehabilitation program after surgery. The study observes patients undergoing laparoscopic or robotic colorectal resections performed under low stable pressure pneumoperitoneum with the AirSeal device. It aims to evaluate the influence of this approach alongside other factors such as anesthesia management and surgical techniques on postoperative outcomes. This observational study does not alter standard surgical care but collects data on recovery parameters and complications. Participants will be monitored from the time of surgery through hospitalization, with maximum follow-up of 30 days post-surgery. Researchers will assess length of hospital stay, pain levels 24 hours after surgery, opioid consumption, surgical and medical complications, and the impact of different minimally invasive approaches and anesthesia methods. The study is expected to help optimize postoperative recovery after colorectal surgery by understanding the benefits of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum.
