Gas exchange disturbance frequently occurs in steep Trendelenburg position during robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy or cystectomy. Due to increased intrathoracic pressure and absorbed CO2 gas insufflated into abdominal cavity, hypercapnia as well as hypoxia may occur. Inverse ratio
Sound waves are used in various industries to accelerate the process of mixing or separating fluids (gases/liquids). We have proved that certain sound waves can safely improve gas exchange in the lung of rats through accelerating gas diffusion inside their airways and alveoli. Now we want to see if

The use of laparoscopic techniques has become common in clinical practice. Absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the peritoneal cavity is the potential mechanism for hypercapnia and a rise in the end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2). Mild hypercarbia causes sympathetic stimulation which results in a
