BACKGROUND: Although pneumoperitoneum (PP) decreases renal blood flow, it remains unclear whether this impacts renal function. Our aim was to characterize the effects of PP on renal perfusion and function using two fluid strategies for intravenous fluid administration. METHODS: Twelve 30-kg pigs were randomized into two groups: maintenance (3 cc/kg/h of normal saline (NS)) and bolus (15 cc/kg/h + 20 cc/kg NaCl bolus prior to induction of PP). Pigs were studied in a blinded fashion for 30 min prior, 60 min during, and 30 min after release of 15 mmHg CO(2) PP. Cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) were measured using an esophageal Doppler probe, renal cortical perfusion (RCP) was measured with a laser Doppler probe on the right kidney, and renal function was measured using the fractional excretion of sodium (FeNa) and urine output. Statistical analysis was performed with area-under-the-curve (AUC) analysis and analysis of variance RESULTS: AUC analysis revealed moderate effect size for CO (0.416) and small effect size for SV (0.366) and RCP (0.363), with decreases seen in the control group but not the bolus group. During PP, urine output increased in the bolus group (p = 0.04) but not in the control group; there was no difference in FeNa in either group. CONCLUSION: Aggressive fluid hydration during CO(2) PP of 15 mmHg preserves CO, SV, and RCP while increasing urine output. No effect on renal function as measured by FeNa was observed in either group.
