Mechanical Ventilation in Obese Surgical Patients
NCT07774065
This study is recruiting at 1 US site in 1 state, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether an intraoperative positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEP) setting strategy aimed at minimizing the mechanical power delivered to the lungs via transpulmonary pressure improves postoperative outcomes in obese patients undergoing conventional laparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgery. The objectives are to determine whether this strategy reduces immediate postoperative hypoxemia, and to assess whether it mitigates lung injury as reflected by relevant blood biomarkers.
