When the suction amount is large, the air feeding time is long,
When the amount of air supplied is large, the suction time is lengthened and the air is supplied and sucked again. At the same time, the abdominal pressure is monitored, and when the abdominal pressure decreases, the air supply time is lengthened to maintain the set value. On the other hand, when the abdominal pressure exceeds the set value, the insufflation time is shortened.

The air supply and suction times are adjusted in this way,
Any time is set so as not to exceed a certain fixed value, for example, 3 seconds. This is because performing continuous air supply and suction for a long time increases the risk of abdominal pressure or abdominal pressure reduction. The smoke exhausting operation by the air supply and the suction is repeatedly performed while the foot switch is depressed.

According to this control method, if the suction amount does not increase due to the clogging of the pipe line, the tube being broken, etc. even if the smoke emission is started, the smoke emission operation is immediately stopped and the normal air supply operation is performed. Because it does, the safety is improved.

If the abdominal pressure cannot be maintained because the air is not supplied in time and the smoke is exhausted too much, the smoke exhaust may be stopped, the abdominal pressure may be recovered, and the smoke exhaust operation may be performed again.

As described above, according to the high-speed insufflation apparatus of the present invention, even when smoke is exhausted at high speed to restore the visual field in the abdominal cavity in a short time, the flow rate of the supplied gas is increased and the gas is rapidly supplied. It is replenished, and at least one of the suction amount and the air supply amount is controlled by constantly monitoring the abdominal pressure, and the abdominal pressure can be maintained at the set value while always balancing smoke emission and air supply. Therefore, it is possible to safely perform an intraperitoneal operation.
