Brief Summary: Studying the arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide difference in children undergoing laparoscopic surgeries under different intra-abdominal pressures is of extreme importance. This is because both hyper and hypocarbia are detrimental in this vulnerable age group.
Detailed Description: Capnography provides a non-invasive estimate of arterial CO2 levels and allows clinicians to modify mechanical ventilation settings in order to maintain normocapnia. Normally, a positive gap between arterial CO2 and ETCO2 of approximately 0.5 kPa is assumed in a healthy patient and ventilation settings are adjusted accordingly. However, the correlation between PaCO2 and PetCO2 during laparoscopic surgery is inconsistent mainly due to inter- and intra-individual variability. Discrepancies between arterial carbon dioxide and End-tidal carbon dioxide measures have been demonstrated in ventilated children with cyanotic congenital heart disease , infants with respiratory failure and during visceral and urological laparoscopic surgery. Moreover, as the increase in PaCO2 is directly proportional to the level of intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) used, variations in the arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide difference can be also expected with different levels of IAP used.
