Summary

Mechanical power is the amount of energy transferred to the respiratory system of patients during each breath period. After overcoming the resistances required for respiration, the remaining energy may end up by damaging the lung parenchyma. Promising studies are showing that this amount of energy, which can be calculated mathematically, can be used as a single indicator instead of the limits used for barotrauma, volu-trauma, or atelecto-trauma in adult patients. However, the MP limit that should not be exceeded in pediatric patients is not yet clear. In this study, we present our MP calculations in pediatric anesthesia

Mechanical power

In our study, mechanical power (MP) will be calculated during mechanical ventilation in patients who will be operated under general anesthesia. MP will be calculated with the simplified formula applied by Gattinoni et al. MPvcv: RR x Tv x (PIP-\[(Pplat-PEEP)/2\]) x 0.098(2) In pressure-controlled ventilation, the simplified MP formula of Becher et al. well be used. MPpcv: RR x Tv x (ΔPinsp + PEEP) x 0.098 (11) For MP calculated according to the weight of the patients; Indexed MP: MP /kg according to IBW. For the force applied to the lungs in each inspiration; Dynamic power (mJ/min): Vt x RR x \[(Pplato+ tPEEP)/2\]. For the driver power that provides the gas flow; Driving power (mJ/min): Vt x RR x \[ (Pplat - tPEEP) / 2\]. Calculating mechanical energy; Mechanical energy (mJ/kg): 0.098 x (V x kg ) x (PIP - \[(P plateau- PEEP) / 2\]) formulas were used
