Summary

The AirSeal® System will allow for lower carbon dioxide (CO2) absorption rates than the standard Endopath System.

Detailed description

The primary observation to be made is the level of carbon dioxide in the arterial blood, specifically when the patient is insufflated and deflated during the surgery. As a result of the consistent pressure that the AirSeal® system maintains, carbon dioxide will be absorbed in lower levels when compared to the standard of care systems in which fluctuations in intra-peritoneum pressure are seen.
