Systems, devices, and methods permit insufflation of a body cavity prior to the insertion of a cannula into the body cavity. Some embodiments of an access system comprise an obturator, a trocar, and a fluid flow channel. The access system has a closed configuration, in which a distal end of the access system is fluidly isolated from the fluid flow channel, and an open configuration, in which the distal end of the access system is fluidly connected to the fluid flow channel, thereby permitting fluid flow, for example, an insufflation gas into a body cavity.

1. An insufflating surgical access system comprising: a trocar comprising: a proximal end and a distal end;a trocar seal assembly disposed at the proximal end of the trocar, the trocar seal assembly comprising an instrument seal;an elongate cannula disposed at the distal end of the trocar, the cannula comprising a tubular wall defining a lumen, an open proximal end, and an open distal end;an access channel defining a longitudinal axis, extending through the trocar seal assembly and the lumen of the cannula, from the proximal end of the trocar to the distal end of the trocar;a fluid port disposed at the proximal end of the trocar; anda fluid flow seal disposed in the access channel;an obturator comprising: an elongate body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;a tissue penetrating tip disposed at the distal end; anda handle disposed at the proximal end,wherein the obturator is slidably insertable into the proximal end of the access channel, and the tip of the obturator extends out of the distal, open end of the cannula when fully inserted therethrough; anda fluid flow channel fluidly connected to the fluid port of the trocar, and extending to a distal end of the insufflating access system,wherein the fluid flow channel comprises at least one proximal opening disposed in the elongate body of the obturator and at least one distal opening disposed in the elongate body of the obturator;wherein the obturator in the access channel has a closed position, in which the body of the obturator sealingly contacts the fluid flow seal, thereby preventing gas flow through the fluid flow channel, andan open position, in which the distal opening is exposed, thereby allowing fluid flow through the fluid flow channel;andwherein the access system is converted from the closed position to the open position by rotating the obturator in the access channel to uncover the at least one distal opening to allow gas flow through the at least one distal opening. 2. The access system of claim 1, wherein trocar seal assembly further comprises a zero seal. 3. The access system of claim 1, wherein the tissue penetrating tip does not comprise vent holes. 4. The access system of claim 1, wherein the distal end of the cannula comprises an angled tip. 5. The access system of claim 1, wherein the fluid port is disposed on the trocar seal assembly. 6. The access system of claim 1, wherein the fluid flow seal is integrated with a cannula tip disposed at the distal end of the cannula. 7. The access system of claim 1, wherein the fluid flow seal is disposed proximal of the distal end of the cannula. 8. The access system of claim 1wherein the fluid flow seal is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the axis channel. 9. The access system of claim 1, wherein the fluid flow seal is not perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the axis channel. 10. The access system of claim 1, wherein the obturator further comprises an instrument well open at a proximal end of the obturator, extending longitudinally through the body of the obturator, terminating at the tip of the obturator, and dimensioned to receive a laparoscope therein, wherein at least a portion of the tip of the obturator is transparent. 11. The access system of claim 10, further comprising a laparoscope. 12. The access system of claim 1, wherein the fluid flow channel comprises a space defined by the lumen of the cannula and the body of the obturator. 13. The access system of claim 1, wherein the fluid flow channel comprises an instrument well disposed in the body of the obturator. 14. A method for insufflating a body cavity using the insufflating surgical access system of claim 1, the method comprising: positioning the obturator in the closed position;fluidly connecting the fluid port with a source of insufflation gas;positioning the tissue penetrating tip at a desired position;advancing the tissue penetrating tip through a body wall until the tip enters a body cavity; andpositioning the obturator in the open position, fluidly connecting the fluid port with the body cavity through the fluid flow channel, thereby insufflating the body cavity. 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising visually monitoring the position of the penetrating tip through a laparoscope. 16. An insufflating surgical access system comprising: a trocar comprising: a proximal end and a distal end;a trocar seal assembly disposed at the proximal end of the trocar, the trocar seal assembly comprising an instrument seal;an elongate cannula disposed at the distal end of the trocar, the cannula comprising a tubular wall defining a lumen, an open proximal end, and an open distal end;an access channel defining a longitudinal axis, extending through the trocar seal assembly and the lumen of the cannula, from the proximal end of the trocar to the distal end of the trocar;a fluid port disposed at the proximal end of the trocar; anda fluid flow seal disposed in the access channel;an obturator comprising: an elongate body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;a tissue penetrating tip disposed at the distal end; anda handle disposed at the proximal end,wherein the obturator is slidably insertable into the proximal end of the access channel, and the tip of the obturator extends out of the distal, open end of the cannula when fully inserted therethrough; anda fluid flow channel fluidly connected to the fluid port of the trocar, and extending to a distal end of the insufflating access system,wherein the fluid flow channel comprises a slot having a proximal end and a distal end disposed in the elongate body of the obturator; the slot extending longitudinally from the proximal end to the distal end of the elongate body of the obturator;wherein the obturator in the access channel has a closed position, in which the distal end of the slot is positioned such that fluid does not flow from the slot thereby preventing fluid flow through the fluid flow channel, andan open position that permits fluid flow from the distal end of the slot, thereby allowing fluid flow through the fluid flow channel. 17. The access system of claim 16, wherein in the closed position, the obturator is displaced distally in the access channel compared with the open position. 18. The access system of claim 16, wherein in the closed position, the obturator is displaced proximally in the access channel compared with the open position. 19. The access system of claim 16, wherein in the closed position, the obturator is rotated in the access channel compared with the open position. 20. The access system of claim 16, wherein the proximal end of the slot is disposed below the instrument seal of the trocar seal assembly in fluid communication with the fluid port.
