Abstract

We sincerely appreciate the valuable comments from the readers, which provide insightful feedback to help us improve our future work. We acknowledge that multiple factors can influence tracheal tube cuff pressure, and we have carefully considered the suggestions provided. Regarding the peritoneal insufflation pressures, these values in different time points had no significant difference as reported in our previous manuscript.

Peer Review reports

Dear Editor,

We sincerely appreciate the valuable comments from the readers, which provide insightful feedback to help us improve our future work. We acknowledge that multiple factors can influence tracheal tube cuff pressure, and we have carefully considered the suggestions provided.

In response to the comments, we agree that further investigation into the influence of cuff compliance and the use of volume control ventilation on tracheal tube cuff pressure during laparoscopic resection of colorectal neoplasms would be beneficial. These factors could indeed play a significant role in optimizing patient outcomes, and we will consider incorporating these aspects into our future research.

Regarding the peritoneal insufflation pressures, we would like to clarify that these values have already been reported in Table 1 of our previous manuscript. We hope this information addresses the readers’ concerns.
