The Incidence of Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients With a Positive and Negative...

Surgery--ComplicationsAtelectasis1 more

The overall objective of this study is to describe the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in patients with a positive and negative AIR-test result. Second, the investigators wish to describe the incidence of a positive AIR-test and its association with the development of PPC. In addition, the investigators aim to describe whether mechanical ventilation strategy differs between patients with a positive and negative AIR-test.

Avoiding Neuromuscular Blockers to Reduce Complications

Respiratory FailureRespiratory Infection4 more

The goal of this study to evaluate whether eliminating the use of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) for maintenance of general anesthesia reduces postoperative pulmonary complications in higher risk patients.

Volume Versus Pressure Ventilation on Lung Atelectasis

Cardiac Congenital Defects

This prospective randomized comparative study, to assess post-operative lung atelectasis by comparing calculated lung score using ultrasound between pediatric patients intubated with LMA (laryngeal mask airway) under volume versus pressure controlled modes of ventilation.

Efficacy and Ventilatory Responses to VHI in Atelectasis Patients

Atelectasis

The purpose of this study include (1) To investigate the efficacy of ventilator hyperinflation technique to re-expand lung atelectasis on patients with critical trauma who intubated and mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit, (2) To investigate the effectiveness of ventilator hyperinflation technique to improve airway clearance on patients with critical trauma in the intensive care unit, and (3) To explore the acute responses of ventilatory functions to ventilator hyperinflation technique on patients with critical trauma who intubated and mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit.

Application Breathing Exercises With Load Inspiratory Postoperative Abdominal Surgery

Pulmonary AtelectasisRespiratory Tract Diseases2 more

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the use of breathing exercises with inspiratory loading on respiratory muscle strength and endurance, lung volumes and capacities and thoracoabdominal mobility in patients after bariatric surgery. It is believed that the use of inspiratory load may mitigate the negative effects of surgical trauma on respiratory muscle dysfunction, preserving respiratory muscle strength, lung volumes and diaphragm mobility, thus reducing the risk of pulmonary complications in the postoperative period.

Influence of Different Physical Therapy Resources Application After Reduction Stomach Surgery

Pulmonary AtelectasisRespiratory Tract Diseases2 more

The aim of this study will be to investigate the effects of using physical therapy resources in the postoperative morbidly obese individuals undergoing gastroplasty. It is believed that the application of these various features of physiotherapy after abdominal surgery may contribute differently in restoring lung function and prevention of pulmonary complications and can thus identify the resources that can contribute more effectively in post-operative bariatric surgery.

Impact of Nebulized Dornase Alpha on Mechanically Ventilated Patients

AtelectasisVentilation1 more

The investigators hypothesized that dornase alpha, administered twice a day (BID) by in-line nebulizer, would improve oxygenation, compliance, and time to extubation in adult patients receiving mechanical ventilation.

Effect of Intraoperative Dynamic Compliance Guided Individualized Positive End-expiratory Pressure...

Postoperative Atelectasis

This study intends to explore the effect of dynamic compliance guided individualized positive end-expiratory pressure titration strategy on reducing the level of postoperative atelectasis in obese patient who have laparoscopic bariatric surgery.The results of the study are to assess the effects of this intervention on the incidence,duration of postoperative atelectasis and other complications including hypoxemia etc. after laparoscopic bariatric surgery.And reducing the burden of postoperative atelectasis on patients and their families, hospitals and public resources.

Ventilation Distribution After Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric Surgery CandidateAtelectasis1 more

Obese patients have an increased risk of developing post-operative respiratory complications due to their comorbidities. They have a restrictive ventilatory defect with reduction of lung volumes and expiratory flow limitation, higher airway resistance and collapsibility of the upper respiratory tract. These abnormalities are worsened by general anesthesia and opioid administration. It has been proved that oxygen therapy with HFNC (high flow nasal cannula) increases lung volumes through a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)-effect. This also improves gas exchange and decreases anatomical dead space. At the present time, CPAP represents the gold standard for the prevention of postoperative pulmonary complications. The purpose of this study is to evaluate lung ventilation, gas exchange and comfort with HFNC compared with CPAP during the post-operative period in patients who undergo laparoscopic bariatric surgery.
