Summary

Protective ventilation - combining a low tidal volume (between 6 and 8 ml/kg) and alveolar recruitment (AR) manoeuvres repeated every 30 minutes - is currently the standard of care for decreasing morbidity associated with mechanical ventilation.

In contrast, there is no consensus on the type of recruitment manoeuvre, which varies from one centre to another and from one study to another.

The investigators intend to compare two currently used AR techniques with regard to their ventilatory efficacy and hemodynamic safety:

* An end-tidal plateau at 30 cmH20 for 30 seconds.
* An end-tidal plateau at 10 cmH20 above the patient's plateau pressure for 30 seconds, without exceeding 30 cmH20.

Conditions

  • Positive-Pressure Respiration

Interventions

DEVICE

echocardiography

• Prospective, simultaneous recording of the cardiac output (measured non-invasively via transthoracic echocardiography) and a number of parameters commonly monitored in the surgical intensive care unit (CVP, SBP/DBP/MBP).

DEVICE

Arterial oximetry

measured by co-oximetry of a blood sample taken via the arterial catheter implemented for critical care
