Brief Summary

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a significantly increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC). Protective ventilation of the lungs could reduce the rate of PPC in patients with COPD. It has been suggested that flow controlled ventilation (FCV) may be less invasive and more protective to the lungs than conventional ventilation in patients with COPD. The primary aim of this study is to determine a optimal individual ventilation setting for FCV in ten participants with COPD.
