Pneumoperitoneum is created during laparoscopic surgery by inhaling a gas, typically carbon dioxide, into the abdominal cavity. The pressure inside the abdomen rises as a result.
Changes in physiology, particularly in the circulatory and respiratory systems, are brought on by the increased intra-abdominal pressure of the pneumoperitoneum, the change in the patient’s posture, and the consequences of carbon dioxide absorption.
The patient may experience severe impacts from both of these modifications and the direct consequences of gas insufflation, particularly if they are elderly or have additional morbidities.
In order to provide the patient with the highest level of safety during laparoscopic surgery, the insufflator combines a precision continuous-flow system with a gas heater.
Due to its continuous insufflating system with a litre flow per minute, the equipment creates an intra-abdominal pressure that is rapid, steady, exact, and immediate. It comes with a user-friendly digital panel that displays the preset abdominal pressure, the actual abdominal pressure, the real flow, and the total volume of gas.
The global laparoscopic insufflator market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The Smith & Nephew Insufflator, the only insufflator in the industry that combines a unique in-line mechanism to deliver warmed and humidified carbon dioxide gas during laparoscopic surgery with a separate independent True Abdominal Pressure line that provides crucial abdominal pressure monitoring, was launched today.
In order to inspect and treat organs in the abdominal cavity, laparoscopy entails the insertion of an endoscope and surgical tools, typically through small abdominal incisions. Insufflators are a tool used during laparoscopic surgery to help establish the working area for viewing and interacting with organs, soft tissue, and equipment.
The TAP function, a pressure monitoring mechanism that enables the system to quickly and seamlessly adjust unintentional variations in intra-abdominal pressure during surgical procedures, is incorporated into the Smith & Nephew Insufflator to give improved control of the operative environment.
Additionally, the device has a safety function that keeps the pressure setting from mistakenly going above a high-end pressure setting that is typically employed in bariatric laparoscopic surgery.
Delivering warmed and humidified carbon dioxide gas during laparoscopic surgery can significantly reduce patient pain, recovery time, and hospital stay, according to numerous peer-reviewed clinical studies, including “A Randomized Controlled Trial to Determine the Effects of Humidified Carbon Dioxide Insufflation During Laparoscopic Surgery,” W. G. Mouton, et. al., Surgical Endoscopy.
