摘要:Laparoscopy is an operation carried out in the abdomen through small incisions with visual control by a camera. This technique needs the abdomen to be insufflated with carbon dioxide to obtain a working space for surgical instruments’ manipulation. Identifying the critical point at which insufflation should be limited is crucial to maximizing surgical working space and minimizing injurious effects. A Bayesian nonlinear growth mixed-effects model for the relationship between the insufflation pressure and the intra–abdominal volume generated is discussed as well as its plausibility to represent the data.
