diamond found in coal mines,diamond is made up of carbon but a gas (co2) also from carbon that proved as a true diamond to surgery. atmospheric air contains 78% nitrogen,21% oxygen & carbon di oxide only .04%,its usefull in non medical field as carbonation agent for cold drinks welding,alcohal industry and fire extinguiser but surgery is alive because of this co2 ,its useful in diagnostic laproscopy to most advanced lap surgery and co2 laser and robotic surgery too.
most used gases in medical practice are oxygen,carbon dioxide,nitrous oxide,air,helium and xenon,surgery reached to new height because of laproscopic surgery,main factor behind lap surgery is gas ,that gas is co2. minimally invasive procedure requires pneumoperitonium for adequate visualization and manipulation and co2 is useful gas for creating pneumoperitoneum.co2 is useful because of high diffusibility,rapid absorption…
