Summary

General anaesthesia impairs respiratory function in overweight patients. The investigators wanted to compare arterial concentration of sevoflurane and oxygen in overweight patients ventilated with increased tidal volume, or normal tidal volume with added 10 cm H2O PEEP.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Ventilatory pattern

In group one, increased tidal volume with a adjusted apparatus dead space volume (IVT), In group two, normal tidal volume with a PEEP to 10 cmH2O applied(NVT). PETCO2 will be adjusted to maintain at 4.5 kPa, in both groups. When PETCO2 values were stable at 4.5 kPa, sevoflurane administration will be started with a vaporiser set to 3%. After 5 minutes the fresh gas flow will be adjusted to 1.0 L/min with an unchanged vaporiser setting throughout the anaesthesia period.
