Intraocular Pressure and Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter Changes at Different PEEP Levels
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is sometimes used during perioperative period, as it has favourable effects on lung mechanics. Unfortunately, it has some negative effects on the patients, like increased intraabdominal, intrathoracic, intracranial and intraocular pressures. In this study the investigators aimed to investigate the effects of different PEEP levels on the patients' intraocular and intracranial pressures. Intraocular pressure will be measured by ocular tonometry, and intracranial pressure will be estimated by optic nerve sheath diameter measurement. The measurements will be performed in the operating room in the patients undergoing laparotomic surgery.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Changes in intraocular pressure [Throughout the operation (usually about 1.5 hours).]
The physiological value for intraocular pressure is 10-20 mm Hg. Changes in intraocular pressure will be observed throughout the surgery, as will its relationship with the positive end-expiratory pressure application.
- Changes in optic nerve sheath diameter [Throughout the operation (usually about 1.5 hours).]
Changes in optic nerve sheath diameter will be observed throughout the surgery, as will its relationship with the positive end-expiratory pressure application.
