Evaluation of the effect of fluid management on intracranial pressure in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynaecological surgery based on the ratio of the optic nerve sheath diameter to the eyeball transverse diameter as measured by ultrasound: a randomised controlled trial.

Background: During gynecological laparoscopic surgery, pneumoperitoneum and the Trendelenburg position (TP) can lead to increased intracranial pressure (ICP). However, it remains unclear whether perioperative fluid therapy impacts ICP. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the impact of restrictive fluid (RF) therapy versus conventional fluid (CF) therapy on ICP in gynecological laparoscopic surgery patients by measuring the ratio of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) to the eyeball transverse diameter (ETD) using ultrasound.
