This prospective clinical study aimed to evaluate the effects of pneumoperitoneum and patient positioning on intracranial pressure in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Intracranial pressure was assessed noninvasively using ultrasonographic optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measurements. ONSD measurements were performed before anesthesia induction in the supine position (T0), 5 minutes after anesthesia induction (T1), 5 minutes after creation of pneumoperitoneum and placement in the reverse Trendelenburg position (T2), at the 20th minute of pneumoperitoneum (T3), and 5 minutes after termination of pneumoperitoneum and return to the supine position (T4). The study aimed to determine the effects of anesthesia, pneumoperitoneum, and surgical positioning on intracranial pressure during bariatric surgery
