Laparoscopy performed at bedside is a valuable diagnostic tool that can be used safely and efficiently in the evaluation of intra-abdominal pathologies, especially in the frail patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, when conventional methods are equivoques or difficult to be performed.Progress in critical care management, especially timely, aggressive resuscitation, has resulted in a subset of intensive care patients, dependent on a multitude of technical devices ranging from monitors, to ventilators, to medication dosimeters.
