Summary

This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to compare the hemodynamic and pulmonary effects of single-step and stepwise lung recruitment maneuvers in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. After separation from cardiopulmonary bypass, patients will be randomized to receive either a single-step sustained inflation recruitment maneuver or a stepwise incremental recruitment maneuver, both combined with 8 cmH₂O positive end-expiratory pressure. The primary outcome is the change in cardiac index before and after the recruitment maneuver. Secondary outcomes include lung ultrasound atelectasis score, and hemodynamic parameters.

Conditions

  • Atelectasis, Postoperative

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Single Step Lung Recruitment Maneuver

A sustained inflation lung recruitment maneuver with an airway pressure of 30 cmH₂O applied for 30 seconds after separation from cardiopulmonary bypass, combined with 8 cmH₂O positive end-expiratory pressure.

PROCEDURE

Stepwise Lung Recruitment Maneuver

A stepwise lung recruitment maneuver in which airway pressure is increased by 5 cmH₂O every 5 seconds up to 30 cmH₂O and then decreased in the same manner after separation from cardiopulmonary bypass, combined with 8 cmH₂O positive end-expiratory pressure.
