NCT02297828

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if the application of Boussignac continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) immediately after extubation improves PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 ratio in morbidly obese patients undergoing gastric bypass surgery .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Difference in mean PaO2 values after surgery

    Arterial blood samples for blood gas analysis are collected at 1 hour, 2 hours and 24 hours post-extubation. The differences in the mean values of PaO2 are registered and analysed.

    24 hours

  • Difference in mean PaO2/FiO2 ratio values after surgery

    Arterial blood samples for blood gas analysis are collected at 1 hour, 2 hours and 24 hours post-extubation. The differences in the mean values of PaO2/FiO2 ratio are registered and analysed.

    24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Difference in mean FEV 1 and FVC values

    24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Boussignac CPAP

EXPERIMENTAL

Boussignac CPAP with a 50% FiO2 (adjusted in a piece adapted to the system) and a pressure of 5cmH2O (measured with a manometer) is applied immediately after extubation and mantained for two hours after extubation in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU). Arterial blood samples to measure PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 ratio are collected before surgery and at 1, 2 and 24 hours after extubation. Spirometry is performed at the same intervals measuring FEV1 and FVC.

Device: Boussignac CPAP

Ventury face mask

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Venturi mask with a 50% FiO2 is used immediately after extubation and mantained for two hours in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU). Arterial blood samples to measure PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 ratio are collected before surgery and at 1, 2 and 24 hours after extubation. Spirometry is performed at the same intervals measuring FEV1 and FVC.

Device: Venturi face mask

Interventions
