A Comparative Assessment of Intraocular Pressure in Prolonged Steep Trendelenburg Position Versus Level Supine Position Intervention
Background: The purpose was to evaluate a level supine intervention (LSI) during laparoscopic surgery in steep Trendelenburg position (Lap ST). Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) and decreases in ocular perfusion pressure have been monitored during Lap ST procedures. Peri-orbital swelling and venous congestion in addition to IOP may produce a low perfusion state in the eye, via a compartment ...
متن کاملImplications for postoperative visual loss: steep trendelenburg position and effects on intraocular pressure.
Postoperative visual loss (POVL) is a rare but catastrophic complication after nonocular surgery. Previously POVL has been reported in lengthy, prone, lateral, or cardiopulmonary cases, with extreme blood loss, hemodilution, and hypotension. The author's index case of POVL following a lengthy operation in steep Trendelenburg position (ST) prompted study of the relationship between intraocular p...
متن کاملPreventive Dorzolamide-Timolol for Rising Intraocular Pressure During Steep Trendelenburg Position Surgery.
The study purpose was to evaluate preventive use of dorzolamide-timolol ophthalmic solution (Cosopt) during laparoscopic surgery with the patient in steep Trendelenburg (ST) position. Periorbital swelling, venous congestion, and elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) may produce low ocular perfusion. Prompt IOP reduction is important because 30- to 40-minute episodes of acute IOP elevations can re...
متن کاملRespiratory effects of prolonged Trendelenburg position.
The Trendelenburg position has been severely criticized (Inglis and Brooke, 1956; Swain, 1960) but is still popular for pelvic surgery. One of the main complaints about this position is that it reduces ventilation as a result of pressure by the abdominal contents upon the diaphragm. This, of course, applies only to patients breaching spontaneously, because, if artificial ventilation is used, th...
متن کاملPost-operative alopecia after robotic surgery in steep Trendelenburg position: a restated observation of pressure alopecia.
Postoperative alopecia is an uncommon complication and its outcome is aesthetically drastic. Although its mechanism has not been clearly elucidated, a proposed risk factor is steep Trendelenburg positioning (30-40 degrees) that is frequently used during robotic gynecologic surgeries. We report a case of postoperative alopecia in 53-year-old female patient who had undergone robotic-assisted lapa...
