The Value of Pressure Support on Ventilation Inhomogeneity and Lung Function in Patients Under Spontaneous Breathing (SB)Across Laryngeal Mask Airway
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating general anesthesia across LMA, Spontaneous breathing(SB), and 1 other intervention for Respiratory Function Tests and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
General anesthesia has been demonstrated to have a negative impact on lung function. Both surgery and patient position influence the perioperative lung function. Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has been proved to be safe and efficient to maintain the airways patent during general anesthesia. Pressure support ventilation (PSV) with LMA is routinely used in clinical practice. The aim of the present trial is to characterize perioperative changes in lung volume, ventilation inhomogeneity and respiratory mechanics in patients in the lithotomy position and spontaneously breathing through LMA with and without PSV.
