Study Arms (2)

Repetitive recruitment with PEEP

EXPERIMENTAL

One alveolar recruitment at before surgery and repetitive alveolar recruitment (once an hour) during surgery

Procedure: Repetitive recruitment with PEEP

One recruitment with PEEP

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

One alveolar recruitment at before surgery

Procedure: One recruitment with PEEP

Interventions

Apply sustained airway pressure of 30-40 cmH2O for 10-20 seconds before suegery and once an hour during surgery. PEEP is set to 7 cmH2O.
