NCT07295158

Brief Summary

This single-center, prospective, randomized, assessor-blinded clinical trial aims to compare the effects of sevoflurane and desflurane anesthesia on intraoperative mechanical power in adult patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power will be measured at three standardized time points using a validated formula, and secondary outcomes include driving pressure values and early postoperative respiratory complications (desaturation, laryngospasm, bronchospasm, cough).

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mechanical Power (MP) during General Anesthesia

    Measured at three intraoperative time points: Post-intubation baseline (MP1) 15 minutes after pneumoperitoneum (MP2) End of surgery before emergence (MP3)

Study Arms (2)

Arm S- Sevoflurane Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Maintenance of general anesthesia with sevoflurane 2% during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power is measured at three intraoperative time points using standardized ventilator settings.

Drug: Sevoflurane

Arm D-desflurane group

EXPERIMENTAL

Maintenance of general anesthesia with desflurane 6% during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power is measured at three standardized intraoperative time points under identical ventilator settings.

Drug: Desflurane

Interventions

General anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane at 2% concentration in patients assigned to the Sevoflurane Group (Group S). Standardized ventilator settings will be applied for all participants, and mechanical power will be measured at three intraoperative time points while sevoflurane is used as the sole maintenance inhalational agent.

Also known as: Group S
Arm S- Sevoflurane Group

Maintenance of general anesthesia with desflurane 6% during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power is measured at three intraoperative time points using standardized ventilator settings.

Arm D-desflurane group

Masking Details
Participants and postoperative outcome assessors are masked to group allocation. The anesthesia team administering sevoflurane or desflurane is not blinded, but all intraoperative data collectors and postoperative evaluators remain blinded to the inhalational agent used. Randomization is performed using sealed opaque envelopes to maintain allocation concealment.
