“…Other influences on this gradient include pretransection ligation of ipsilateral vessels, use of inflow occlusion or other techniques of vascular control, and patient positioning. Interestingly, positive pressure pneumoperitoneum has been shown to decrease blood loss from liver trauma in an animal model [18]. The counterpressure exerted by pneumoperitoneum can contribute to hemostasis during LH by tamponade [19].…”

“…10 Subsequently, abdominal insufflation was evaluated in a swine model of a grade V hepatic laceration created by a captive bolt gun. 11 The blood loss was 69% lower in the animals insufflated with CO 2 compared with the control animals. 11 Furthermore, mortality was 0% in the treatment group compared with 30% in the control group.…”

“…Indeed, the vascular pressure along the liver stump is related to the inflow (decreased by clamping), the outflow (decreased by low central venous pressure) and the counter pressure of pneumoperitoneum. Jaskille et al [53] have even shown that the positive pressure of the pneumoperitoneum could decrease blood loss after liver trauma in an animal model. However, a theoretical risk of CO 2 embolism exists by using a positive pressure pneumoperitoneum with a low central venous pressure, causing a pressure gradient in the venous circulation [54].…”
