Filter by:This study will use lung ultrasounds (LUS) to evaluate the incidence and severity of intraoperative atelectasis in anesthetized children undergoing minor surgery using a laryngeal mask airway. The children will be randomly assigned to be left in spontaneous ventilation with a Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) of 5cmH2O or to be ventilated with a pressure support mode.
With the rapid advancement of thoracoscopic surgery in recent years, surgeons have set higher standards for the quality of non-ventilated lung collapse. In a prior investigation, we examined a unidirectional valve device that let air exit the non-ventilated side of the lung but not enter during ventilation and showed the use of this device during one-lung ventilation (OLV) for patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery could speed up lung collapse, lower endogenous positive end-expiratory pressure, and have no discernible effects on oxygenation. In light of this, we conducted this study to further demonstrate, by comparison with the commonly used clinical technique of occluding the non-ventilated endobronchial lumen during one-lung ventilation, that this unidirectional valve device can quicken and enhance the quality of lung collapse without raising the risk of adverse events when used in thoracoscopic surgery.
The goal of this clincal trial is to determine the differences in few parameter of lung function (ie Forced Vital Capacity (FCV)) between Sugammadex and conventional reversal in laparoscopic abdominal surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is there differences in the pulmonary function test preoperative and post extubation between Sugammadex and conventional reversal in laparoscopic abdominal surgery? 2. Is there differences in the size of atelectasis area between Sugammadex and conventional reversal in laparoscopic abdominal surgery? 3. Is there differences between sugammadex and conventional reversal in postoperative mean length of stay in laparoscopic abdominal surgery? Participants will be asked 1. to do baseline spirometry before operation 2. to be examined for lung ultrasound before operation 3. to be given either sugammadex or neostigmine as reversal after operation is completed 4. to repeat spirometry after operation for few times 5. to be examined for lung ultrasound after operation Researcher will compare sugammadex group and conventional group to see if any difference in term of lung function, size of atelectasis and length of stay.
Atelectasis after induction of general anesthesia is common even in healthy patients and is clinically problematic, especially in obese patients. We aim to investigate whether preoxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen during anesthesia induction reduces atelectasis in obese patients.
To investigate the hypothesis that an alveolar recruitment maneuver after the release of pneumoperitoneum would restore the lung compliance to the baseline values after a laparoscopic gynaecologic surgery.
The goal of this observational study is to learn more about the effect of obstetric epidural anesthesia on regional lung ventilation in healthy parturient women. The main question it aims to answer is whether the initiation or epidural analgesia improves or not regional lung ventilation in healthy women at term during labor. Participants will be subject to measurements of pulmonary impedance by electric impedance tomography before and after the start of epidural analgesia. No change will be applied to clinical care as a result of this measurement.
This study aimed to show the Effectiveness of Ultrasound-guided Lung Ventilation to determine the appropriate level of inspiratory pressure sufficient to provide adequate pulmonary ventilation with the resolution of the atelectatic lung.
Atelectasis is a common complication in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia, particularly in obese patients. Postoperative atelectasis could last for more than 24h and contribute to a variety of other complications, including hypoxemia and pneumonia. We plan to conduct a single-center, randomized controlled trial in patients undergoing bariatric surgery to test the hypothesis that driving pressure guided PEEP could reduce the postoperative atelectasis.
This study will investigate the distribution of gas during mechanical ventilation in patients undergoing robot assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. The gas distribution of ventilation are monitored and data extracted using electric impedance tomography in different respiratory rates.
Single Use Flexible bronchoscopes have gained popularity in recent years and are becoming technologically more advanced. They are widely accepted and used in everyday practice for simple procedures. The aim of this study is to evaluate single use flexible bronchoscopes in more advanced settings, such as interventional pulmonary procedures.
