Meta-analysis of warmed versus standard temperature CO2 insufflation for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Technical aspects of laparoscopic liver resection : an experimental study
TLDR
With increase in laparoscopic liver resections (LLR), it is of even more interest to develop surgical techniques to minimize bleeding and the risk of infection.
Insufflation with Humidified and Heated Carbon Dioxide in Short-Term Laparoscopy: A Double-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
TLDR
Warm, humidified insufflation gas significantly reduces postoperative shoulder-tip pain as well as morphine demand in patients with benign uterine diseases.
Shakespeare's View of the Laparoscopic Pneumoperitoneum

Shakespeare's premonition regarding chilling effects and intentionally induced unhappy events perpetrated on the peritoneal cavity is not, nor cannot, come to good.
Warmed and humidified carbon dioxide for abdominal laparoscopic surgery: meta-analysis of the current literature
TLDR
Only few beneficial effects on immediate postoperative pain and core temperature have been identified in this meta-analysis, which is probably needed to close the debate on the real impact of warmed and humidified CO2 for laparoscopic procedures.
Systematic review of oxidative stress associated with pneumoperitoneum
There have been several reports of ischaemic complications after routine laparoscopy. The aim of this review was to investigate the relationship between this oxidative stress and pneumoperitoneum.
Humidification during laparoscopic surgery: overview of the clinical benefits of using humidified gas during laparoscopic surgery
  • M. Binda

    Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics
  • 2015
TLDR
The use of humidified and warm insufflation gas offers a significant clinical benefit to the patient, creating a more physiologic peritoneal environment and reducing the post-operative pain and hypothermia.
Warm, Humidified Carbon Dioxide Gas Insufflation for Laparoscopic Appendicectomy in Children: A Double-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
TLDR
Warm, humidified CO2 insufflation for acute laparoscopic appendicectomy has no short-term clinical benefits on postoperative outcomes in pediatric patients, and there were no differences in postoperative recovery parameters.
Warming and Humidification of Insufflation Carbon Dioxide in Laparoscopic Colonic Surgery: A Double-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
TLDR
Warming and humidification of insufflation CO2 does not attenuate the early inflammatory cytokine response, and confers no clinically significant benefit in laparoscopic colonic surgery.
Warmed, humidified carbon dioxide insufflation versus standard carbon dioxide in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a double-blinded randomized controlled trial
TLDR
The use of warmed and humidified carbon dioxide during LCHE reduces postoperative pain at the day of operation.

A randomized controlled trial assessing the benefit of humidified insufflation gas during laparoscopic surgery
TLDR
The use of humidified insufflation gas reduces postoperative pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy, but except for these relatively brief procedures, the heat-preserving effect of humidification of insufflated gas is not significant.

TLDR
The Insuflow device modestly reduced shivering and heat loss, as well as the need for opioid analgesics in the early postoperative period, but failed to improve laparoscopic visualization due to fogging, and provided improvement in the quality of recovery only on postoperative day 2.
