NCT04316208

Brief Summary

We aim to determine the level of intraoperative PEEP that optimizes lung compliance without causing a rise in subdural pressure and if we can utilize optic nerve sheath diameter measurement as an indicator for ICP while optimizing lung compliance during supratentorial tumor surgeries.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Subdural pressure

    22G/ 0.9mm catheter will be introduced into subdural space after craniotomy and connected to the transducer for pressure measurement

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

  • Optic nerve sheath diameter (left and right)

    Ultrasound-guided measurement with the linear probe.

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Mean arterial pressure

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

  • Brain relaxation index

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

  • Arterial blood gases

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

  • Regional cerebral oxygen saturation

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

  • Lung compliance

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

Other Outcomes (2)

  • P/F ratio

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

  • Brain perfusion pressure

    Measurements will look at the change between 3 timepoints: at 5 minutes with PEEP of 0 cmH2O (T0), then at 5 minutes with PEEP of 5 cmH2O (T5), and finally at 5 minutes with PEEP of 10 cmH2O (T10)

Study Arms (1)

Supratentorial tumor surgery

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergoing elective supratentorial tumor surgery under general anesthesia will be ventilated with positive end-expiratory pressures of 0, 5 and 10 cmH2O after craniotomy.

Procedure: PEEP variations

Interventions

Patients will be ventilated with a PEEP of 5 cmH2O during induction of anesthesia. After craniotomy, the PEEP will be reduced to 0 cmH2O for 5 minutes and data will be collected at the end of 5 minutes. Next, PEEP will be increased to 5 cmH2O for 5 minutes and data will be collected at the end of 5 minutes. Finally, PEEP will be increased to 10 cmH2O for 5 minutes and data will be collected at the end of 5 minutes.
