    Abstract:
    The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to determine whether applying the reverse Trendelenburg position before pneumoperitoneum has a preventive effect on increased intracranial pressure using optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measurement as a noninvasive parameter. Seventy-nine patients were allocated to two groups according to whether pneumoperitoneum was applied in the supine position (group S, n = 40) or in the reverse Trendelenburg position (group RT, n = 39). The ONSD was measured at the following time points: T0: before anesthesia; T1: after endotracheal intubation; T2: after pneumoperitoneum in group S and after positioning in group RT; T3: after positioning in group S and after pneumoperitoneum in group RT; T4: 30 min after endotracheal intubation, and T5: after desufflation. The end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2), regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2), peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2), mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), peak inspiratory pressure (Ppeak), and dynamic compliance (Cdyn) were recorded. Background and perioperative characteristics were similar in both groups. In group S, the ONSD was higher at T2, T3, T4, and T5 than that in group RT (p < 0.001, p = 0.002, p = 0.001, and p = 0.012, respectively). In the same group, the number of patients with an ONSD above 5.8 mm was higher at T2, T3, and T4 (p < 0.001, p = 0.042, p = 0.036, respectively). The rSO2 and SpO2 were not different between the groups. The mean arterial pressure was lower in group RT at T2, and the HR was not different between the groups (p < 0.001). In group S, Ppeak was higher and Cdyn was lower at T2 (p < 0.001). The number of patients with nausea was higher in group S (p = 0.027). The present study demonstrates that applying the reverse Trendelenburg position before pneumoperitoneum prevented an increase in the ONSD in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Trial registration The trial was registered prior to patient enrollment at https://register.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04224532, Date of the registration: January 8, 2020).
