Overview
Brief Summary
Postoperative patients require respiratory management . It is known that the intrapulmonary ventilation distribution becomes uneven due to dorsal atelectasis and ventral hyperinflation during mechanical ventilation management, but the incidence in postoperative patients is unknown. EIT is a device that can monitor the ventilation distribution in the lungs over time without being exposed to the bedside. Therefore, for patients at risk of postoperative respiratory complications, use EIT to 1) evaluate the pulmonary ventilation distribution during postoperative ventilation management, 2) pulmonary ventilation distribution and postoperative respiratory organs. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship with the severity of complications.
A prospective observational study to investigate the relationship between ventilation distribution and prognosis using EIT in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation after adult surgery.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Association the dorsal fraction of ventilation in EIT and postoperative respiratory complication score
Time Frame: up to 12 weeks
Dorsal fraction of ventilation(%):The dorsal fraction of ventilation is calculated as the sum of all pixel values in the dorsal half of the EIT image over the sum of all pixel values from the EIT image Postoperative pulmonary complications score(0-5):Postoperative pulmonary complications were scored using a grade scale ranging from 0 to 5, with grade zero representing absence of complications, grades 1 to 4 representing increasing (worsening) levels of complications, and grade 5 representing death before hospital discharge.
