Summary

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.

Conditions

  • Pulmonary Atelectasis
  • Obesity, Morbid

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Individualized PEEP group

Individualized PEEP group: Recruitment Maneuver (RM) is performed first. In pressure control mode, PEEP and airway plateau pressure are increased to 20 cmH2O and 35 cmH2O at a rate of 5 cmH2O every 30s, and driving pressure is maintained at 15 cmH2O throughout. Subsequently, in volume-controlled ventilation mode, PEEP decreases from 20 cmH2O to 4 cmH2O at gradient of 2 cmH2O, and each PEEP level is maintained for 30s. The PEEP corresponding to the lowest driving pressure is the individualized PEEP we need. If multiple PEEP levels showed the same lowest driving pressure, the lowest PEEP value as the individualized PEEP. The above procedures are performed three times during the surgery (5 minutes after intubation,5 minutes after the beginning of pneumoperitoneum, and 5 minutes after the end of pneumoperitoneum).

PROCEDURE

Fixed PEEP group

After the same RM, PEEP is fixed at 8 cmH2O.
