Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

During robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, pneumoperitoneum with Trendelenburg position is used. However, perioperative atelectasis and respiratory complications may occur with high incidence due to general anesthesia and carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum. Intraoperative ventilatory strategy to address these issues include intraoperative recruitment maneuver and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Recently, individualized optimal PEEP with minimal driving pressure or maximal respiratory compliance was reported to reduce respiratory complications after general anesthesia. A recent version of general anesthesia ventilator provides a stepwise procedure of determining optimal PEEP by calculating respiratory compliance. We investigated whether the application of individualized optimal PEEP could reduce the incidence of atelectasis and respiratory complications after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy compared to uniform PEEP.

A recent version of general anesthesia ventilator provides a stepwise procedure of determining optimal PEEP by calculating respiratory compliance. We investigated whether the application of individualized optimal PEEP could reduce the incidence of atelectasis and respiratory complications after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy compared to uniform PEEP. We plan to determine the degree of immediate postoperative atelectasis by measuring the lung ultrasound score and compare the lung ultrasound score between groups.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Optimal PEEP

Individualized optimal PEEP will be provided during the laparoscopic period of surgery. Optimal PEEP will be determined by the automated procedure of step-wised decrease in the amount of PEEP of the anesthesia ventilator Aisys Care Station (GE Healthcare, Madison, Wisconsin, USA).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Individualized optimal positive end-expiratory pressure

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Optimal PEEP will be determined by the automated procedure of step-wised decrease in the amount of PEEP of the anesthesia ventilator Aisys Care Station (GE Healthcare, Madison, Wisconsin, USA).

Conventional PEEP

A same amount of PEEP of 7 centimeter hydrogen dioxide will be provided during the laparoscopic period of surgery.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Conventional positive end-expiratory pressure

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

A same amount of PEEP of 7 centimeter hydrogen dioxide will be provided during the laparoscopic period of surgery.
