NCT04374162

Brief Summary

The effect of driving pressure (DP)-guided positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) on early postoperative pulmonary ventilation is to be determined for patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Patients are recruited to receive volume controlled ventilation with either a fixed PEEP (5cmH2O) or DP titrated PEEP. Early postoperative regional distribution of lung ventilation, expressed as center of ventilation (COV) is evaluated by electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a noninvasive, radiation free modality. Perioperative ventilatory parameters, arterial oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2) , serum indicators and postoperative pulmonary complications are secondary outcome variables.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • early postoperative overall spatial distribution of pulmonary ventilation

    global inhomogeneity index (GI): overall degree of spatial heterogeneity of ventilation. GI is measured by electrical impedance tomography (EIT). A smaller GI index represents a more homogeneous distribution, and a larger GI index indicates a more inhomogeneous ventilation.

    immediately after extubation

Other Outcomes (1)

  • incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs)

    within the first 3 days after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Conventional PEEP

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

PEEP = 5 cmH2O

Procedure: PEEP

Driving pressure (DP) guided-PEEP

EXPERIMENTAL

DP is calculated as "plateau pressure - PEEP". 10 min after pneumoperitoneum, PEEP is increased from 5 to 15 cm H2O incrementally. Each PEEP level is maintained for 10 respiratory cycles, with DP in the last cycle recorded. Then the PEEP level producing the lowest DP will be identified and maintained intraoperatively.

Procedure: PEEP

Interventions

PEEPPROCEDURE
