Intraoperative Electrical Impedance Tomography in Obese Patients Undergoing Robotic Assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Obese

• Registration Number: NCT04757025
• Lead Sponsor: Regina Elena Cancer Institute

Brief Summary

The primary objective of our study will be verify a possible improvement in arterial oxygenation in the obese patient undergoing robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy if the ventilation will be guided by electrical impedance tomography rather than peripheral saturation alone.
