NCT ID: NCT03256396 Completed - Laparoscopy Clinical Trials

Intraoperative PEEP Setting During Laparoscopic Gynecologic Surgery

Start date: March 30, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The creation of pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgery can have significant effects on the respiratory system including decreased respiratory system compliance, decreased vital capacity and functional residual capacity and atelectasis formation. Intraoperative mechanical ventilation, especially setting of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) has an important role in respiratory management during laparoscopic surgery. The aim of this study is to determine whether setting of PEEP guided by measurement of pleural pressure would improve oxygenation and respiratory system compliance during laparoscopic surgery.
