Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative Pain

    A questionnaire with a numeric rating scale (NRS) is used to evaluate pain intensity at 4, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours postoperatively to assess pain intensity. The scale includes even numbers from 0 to 10, where 0 signifies no pain, and 10 signifies the worst imaginable pain.

    4, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative Nausea

    4, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Pulmonary recruitment maneuver

EXPERIMENTAL

Ventilator-piloted pulmonary recruitment maneuver at the end of laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

Procedure: Pulmonary recruitment maneuverProcedure: Laparoscopic bariatric surgeryDevice: Ventilator

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Ordinary ventilation at the end of laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

Procedure: Laparoscopic bariatric surgeryDevice: Ventilator

Interventions

The participants in the experimental arm receives 1 minute of ventilator-piloted pulmonary recruitment with positive inspiratory pressure set to 40 cm H2O, at the end of laparoscopic bariatric surgery.
