Summary

Given the observations in animal models and the available data in the human our hypothesis is that peritoneal cavity conditioning (carbon dioxide with 4% of oxygen and 10% of N2O, 100% humidification at 32°C,) during open surgery, will result in an important decrease in postoperative peritoneal inflammation, postoperative pain, and will restore bowel transit faster.
