New treatment option for Postoperative Pulmonary Atelectasis
Official title Driving Pressure During Surgeries With High Risk for Postoperative Pulmonary Complications
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07186933
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different types of perioperative mechanical ventilation (MV), specifically Protective Mechanical Ventilation (PMV) and MV with the lowest possible Driving Pressure (ΔP), in relation to the appearance of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in adult patients who are operated and have higher risk of PPCs. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is MV with lower ΔP better than conventional PMV in preventing PPCs in patients with higher risk for PPCs?
