Typical Use
Create and maintain pneumoperitoneum for laparoscopic surgery.
Description
A device that delivers and regulates carbon dioxide gas into the peritoneal cavity to establish working space for laparoscopic visualization and instrument manipulation, controlling pressure, flow, and temperature to optimize surgical conditions and patient safety. Insufflation parameters influence cardiopulmonary physiology and require anesthetic monitoring and surgical awareness to avoid overpressurization, gas embolism, or subcutaneous emphysema. Modern insufflators include smoke evacuation and filtration options and integrate with laparoscopic towers to support minimally invasive procedures across specialties.
