Individualized Perioperative Open Lung Ventilatory Strategy

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Abdominal Surgery Expected More Than Two Hours
Moderated-high Risk of Postoperative Pulmonary Complication
Interventions
Procedure: Postoperative CPAP
Procedure: Alveolar recruitment maneuver
Procedure: Calculation of optimal PEEP
Registration Number
NCT02158923
Lead Sponsor
Fundación para la Investigación del Hospital Clínico de Valencia
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether individualized ventilatory management combining the use of low tidal volumes, alveolar recruitment maneuvers, individually titrated positive end-expiratory pressure and postoperative individualized ventilatory support will decrease postoperative complications, unplanned ICU readmissions, ICU and hospital length of stay and mortality compared to a standardized Lung Protective Ventilation (LPV) for all patients at risk.

Individualized vent. + postop. CPAPCalculation of optimal PEEPIntraoperatively ventilated patients with a tidal volume of 8 ml / kg of ideal body weight, and a FiO2 of 0.8. After intubation, all patients were conduct an alveolar recruitment maneuver (MRA) and PEEP level individualized spanned (see Calculation of optimal PEEP). Every 40 minutes will be assessed the need to adjust the level of PEEP by evaluating the dynamic compliance of the respiratory system (Crs). Faced with a decline in Crs\> 10% a new MRA and optimal PEEP setting will be assessed. Postoperatively a CPAP of 5 cmH2O (or 10 cmH2O if BMI\> 30) with a FiO2 of 0.5 will be applied.

Standard vent. + postoperative CPAPPostoperative CPAPIntraoperatively ventilated patients with a tidal volume of 8 ml / kg of ideal body weight, PEEP 6 cmH2O and FiO2 0.8. In these groups no recruitment maneuvers or optimal PEEP setting will be performed. Postoperatively, a CPAP of 5 cmH2O (or 10 cmH2O if BMI\> 30) with a FiO2 of 0.5 will be applied.
