U.S., Aug. 25 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07782580) titled 'Low-Pressure AirSeal Versus Conventional Insufflation in Major Minimally Invasive Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery' on Aug. 14.
Brief Summary: When performing minimally invasive (MIS) hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery, an air seal is used for optimal space and visibility of the surgical field. This is typically done at a pressure of 10-15 mmHg, but can also come with risks of serious complications. HBP surgeries are high risk, prolonged, and complex, which all come with their own difficulties. Current pressure systems have shown pressure instability and leak conditions such as changing instruments and suctioning. When there is in...
