Brief Summary: Atelectasis may be encountered in the patient population aged 18-65 years undergoing elective laparoscopic bariatric surgery under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. The aim of this study is to compare oxygenation, postoperative atelectasis, and postoperative respiratory complications between the fixed PEEP application (SP Group) and personalized PEEP application (KP Group). In the SP Group, ventilation will be applied with PEEP = 8 cmH2O, tidal volume = 8 ml/kg, and respiratory rate to maintain EtCO2 between 35-40, and this ventilation mode was maintained throughout the entire surgery. In the KP Group, ventilation was applied with tidal volume = 8 ml/kg, PEEP = 4 cmH2O, and respiratory rate to maintain EtCO2 between 35 -40, and dynamic compliance was noted 1 minute after the onset of pneumoperitoneum at 12 mmHg. Subsequently, the PEEP value wastitrated every 2 minutes by increasing it by 2 cmH2O until the level providing the highest dynamic compliance value is reached. If the dynamic compliance value does not increase in two consecutive measurements, the previous PEEP value was defined as the patient's "personalized PEEP" value, and ventilation was continued with this PEEP value until the end of the surgery. In all patients, arterial blood gas (ABG) was obtained 10 minutes after anesthesia induction, at the 10th and 30th minutes of pneumoperitoneum, and 10 minutes after pneumoperitoneum is terminated.Patients were transferred to the recovery room after anesthesia is discontinued, and arterial blood gas sampling and lung ultrasound was performed at 30 minutes postoperatively. On postoperative day 1, presence of atelectasis was assessed with lung ultrasound, and SpO2 was recorded at 4th, 12th, and 24th hours postoperatively. Within 4 hours postoperatively, patients in need of supplemental oxygen were recorded(SpO2 92% was decided as cut-off value). After the 4th hour, the number of patients requiring supplemental oxygen after the 4th hour was recorded and compared in both groups. Data were collected and recorded using a standardized paper-based data collection form. A power analysis measurement (post-hoc test) is planned to be performed. If the power analysis exceeds 80% between the groups, the study will be terminated. Data collection was completed after reaching the planned number of volunteers. The study results will be evaluated using the SPSS statistical analysis program. Numerical data between groups (SP vs. KP) will be evaluated using the ANOVA test or Kruskal Wallis test, while categorical data will be evaluated using the chi-square test or Fisher exact test. P\<0.05 will be considered statistically significant, and univariate and multivariate analyses will be performed.
