Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
1. To evaluate the effect of the induction of anaesthesia and paralysis in terms of changes in oscillatory mechanics parameters
2. To evaluate the mechanical properties of the respiratory system in terms of input and transfer oscillatory impedance in response to PEEP changes
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Specifically, Xrs (and its derived variable CX5, the oscillatory compliance at 5 Hz) identifies the minimum positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) level required to maintain lung recruitment with high sensitivity and specificity. Moreover, it has been recently demonstrated that Xrs may be used to identify the lowest level of PEEP able to prevent atelectasis and that PEEP setting strategy based on maximizing Xrs is able to limit lung injury compared to oxygenation-based approach in a porcine lavage model of lung injury. ( Ref.3)
Recently, at the biomedical engineering department of Politecnico di Milano measurements of chest wall displacement have been successfully performed by means of an optical sensor realized using a laser self-mixing interferometer (LIR). The advantage of this approach is that it is contact-less, that by deflecting the laser been it is possible to scan any region of the chest wall surface and that it allows to measure also low-frequency vibrations.
Protocol
1. The baseline pulmonary function will be assessed by spirometry before surgery.
2. Just before surgery measurements of oscillatory mechanics will be performed at the following stages:
* awake patient
* spontaneous ventilation through the laryngeal mask after induction of anesthesia
* pressure controlled ventilation (PCV) after the administration of neuromuscular blocking agent and intubation and PEEP 0 cmH2O
* PCV with PEEP 5 cmH2O
* Recruitment maneuver (RM) (peak pressure 30 cmH2O and PEEP 15 cmH2O) for 2 minutes
* PCV with PEEP 5 cmH2O after RM
At each stage the following measurements will be performed:
* Input impedance at 5-11-19 Hz by FOT
* the movements of the chest wall assessed by laser interferometry (LIR) applying two different stimulating waveforms: 5-11-19 Hz and 100 Hz
* functional residual capacity (FRC)
* arterial blood gas measurement (ABG)

Anesthetized patients ASA I-II
ASA classification I-II, scheduled for elective surgery requiring general anesthesia.
Forced oscillatory technique (FOT) and laser interferometry (LIR).
FOT: The stimulating signal is generated by an A/D-D/A board and amplified by a power amplifier that drives a loudspeaker the output of which is connected to inspiratory line of the ventilator. Pressure and flow are measured at the inlet of the endotracheal tube by a piezoresistive pressure transducer and a mesh-type heated pneumotachograph coupled with a differential pressure transducer.
LIR: The scanner unit is made by three laser interferometers, the beams of which are deflected on the chest wall surface by a mirror moved by a stepper motor triggered on the respiratory pattern of patient.
