Brief Summary: Anesthetic effects, surgery, and invasive mechanical intubation can impair respiratory function during general anesthesia. The risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) include the type of surgery and duration, ventilation-perfusion discrepancy, and the presence of pain. Mitigating PPCs under anesthesia is a goal, but effective strategies are yet to be defined. Conventional ventilation (CV) procedure uses more inspired oxygen during pre-oxygenation and anesthesia maintenance. The protective lung ventilation (PV) procedure, on the other hand, includes high positive end-expiratory pressure, lung recruitment maneuver, oxygen saturation levels above 94%, lower inspired oxygen levels, and continuous positive airway pressure before the tube is removed. In this study, 56 consecutive patients undergoing abdominal surgery were randomly assigned, with 30 in the CV and 23 in the PV group, while 3 were lost during the follow-up. We concluded that the implementation of protective lung ventilation strategies has the potential to reduce the occurrence of PPCs, recommending these strategies be adopted as the standard practice in general anesthesia.
Detailed Description: Additionally, despite accumulated knowledge and careful monitoring, sometimes an anesthesiologist is still unable to entirely avoid the occurrence of atelectasis, a common phenomenon observed during general anesthesia. Altogether, it can be concluded that the effects of mechanical ventilation and oxygenation over an extended period are not yet well understood, particularly regarding the impact of reducing tidal volume and using higher PEEPs. This study was a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled, patient- and evaluator-blinded clinical investigation with a two-arm parallel design to assess the advantage of the protective (optimized) ventilation procedure (PV group of patients) compared to the conventional (standard) method of lung ventilation (CV) during general anesthesia.
