Brief Summary

The prevalance of obesity has increased wordwide in both develoed and developing countries.Obesity has shown to negatively impact the respiratory system and pulmonary function.It has been widely reported thet obesity can lead to restrictive pulmonary disease.Several studies have been done to asess the alteration in pulmonary function tests in post operative period. In the present day surgical practise early discharge after surgery is very common . With increasing prevalence of obesity and with increase incidence of surgical interventions in obese patients, there is lack of adequate assessment of alteration of pulmonary function in post operative period in obese patients.Thus the present study will be undertaken to study the alteration in pulmonary function tests in patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia and its relation with body mass index

After a detailed pre anaesthetic evaluation patients scheduled for surgery under GA satisfying the inclusion criteria will be taken for study.Written and informed consent will be obtained after explaining the procedure in a language that the patient understand one day before the surgery.Patients height,weight,age,gender will be noted.Baseline PFT values will be recorded by using UNI EM SPIROMIN VERSION 17 02. Patient will also informed that a similar test will be performed after 24 hrs after surgery.

Patient will receive standard general anaesthesia. Hemodynamic parameters like SBP,DBP and HR and EtCO2  and SPO2 and ECG will be monitored.Total duration of anaesthesia will be noted. Patient will be shifted to post operative ward for monitoring after recovery from anaesthesia
