Atallah 2009.
Methods | Single‐centre, 2‐arm RCT with computer‐generated randomization |
Participants | Patients (mixed gender) undergoing robotic assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy and open surgery n = 15 |
Interventions | Anaesthesia with isoflurane (n = 8) for one group and with ketamine‐midazolam‐fentanyl ‐ TIVA (n = 7) for the other |
Outcomes | System organ function (primary), operative conditions (secondary) (blood loss) and recovery profiles (secondary) Study reported heart rate, mean blood pressure, mean air way pressure, lung compliance, pH, arterial carbon dioxide tension, serum bicarbonate, growth hormone, cortisol, albumin, prothrombin and fibrinogen, bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels |
Notes |
Conclusion: TIVA was considered an advantage in shortening the duration of pneumoperitoneum without an increase in prothrombin and fibrinogen concentrations Funding: not stated Conflict of interest: not stated None of the reported outcomes comply with those required in the present review. Study authors were contacted in June 2016 as they may have measured other outcomes ‐ response awaited |
