Mean of tracheal tube cuff pressure at different time points. From T1 to T4, tracheal tube cuff pressure at T1 was highest and it was 33.7 ± 2.9 cmH20, it was comparable at 15, 30 and 45 min after insufflation. At T0.5, it was significantly lower than all values from T1 to T4 (p < 0.001 for all time points comparisons). Compared to T4, tracheal tube cuff pressure at T1, T2 and T3 were significantly higher (p < 0.001 for all time points comparisons)

CP: tracheal tube cuff pressure; T0.5: tracheal tube cuff pressure adjusted to 25 cmH20; T1: 15 min after pneumoperitoneum; T2: 30 min after pneumoperitoneum; T3: 45 min after pneumoperitoneum; T4: 15 min after exsufflation
