Impact of low- and standard-abdominal pressure on post- operative pain during laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials

Abstract

Background: This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the impact of low- and standard-abdominal pressure on intraoperative, postoperative, and survival outcomes of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC). Methods: A literature search of the databases, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library was performed until April 30, 2021. Studies comparing low abdominal pressure and standard abdominal pressure for LC were included. Two reviewers independently screened the studies, extracted the data of interest, and assessed the risk of bias. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3.
