What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Laparoscopic surgery, characterized by minimal invasiveness, rapid recovery, and shorter hospital stays, has been widely adopted in Gynecologic Oncology. However, the elevation and stretching of the diaphragm following pneumoperitoneum, combined with increased intra-abdominal pressure compressing visceral organs and causing ischemia-hypoxia, can trigger systemic inflammatory responses and lead to postoperLaparoscopic surgery, characterized by minimal invasiveness, rapid recovery, and shorter hospital stays, has been widely adopted in gynecological procedures. However, the elevation and stretching of the diaphragm following pneumoperitoneum, combined with increased intra-abdominal pressure compressing visceral organs and causing ischemia-hypoxia, can trigger systemic inflammatory responses and lead to postoperative pain. Inadequate or delayed pain management may prolong hospitalization, a
