Brief Summary
This is an investigator-initiated, international, multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional study that aims to 1) describe the incidence and types of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), 2) describe patient demographics, baseline characteristics, and intraoperative ventilation management, 3) describe the occurrence of intraoperative adverse events (IAEs), and 4) their associations with PPCs, 5) assess the practice of intraoperative mechanical ventilation. Patients will be eligible for participation if: 1) adult and 2) receiving intraoperative ventilation during general anesthesia for surgery. Patients receiving ventilation outside of an operating room as well as patients receiving intraoperative ventilation during extracorporeal life support will be excluded

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs)
Incidence and type of PPCs
within 5 days after surgery
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Intraoperative adverse events (IAEs)
Intraoperatively
Intraoperative mechanical ventilation practice
Intraoperatively
Postoperative clinical outcome
Postoperatively, on day 28 following surgery
Study Arms (1)
Intraoperative mechanical ventilation
Patients subjected to invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) during general anesthesia for surgery
Interventions
Any IMV during general anesthesia for surgery
Eligibility Criteria
Patients subjected to IMV during general anesthesia for surgery will be included in a consecutive manner
You may qualify if:
- Adults; and
- Receiving intraoperative IMV (via tracheal intubation, or supraglottic device ) during general anesthesia for surgery
You may not qualify if:
- Receiving intraoperative IMV outside of an operating room; and
- Receiving intraoperative IMV during extracorporeal life support
