Brief Summary

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

Upon introducing pneumoperitoneum our research team noticed a reduction in expiration time displayed on the screen of the anesthesia machine. Since most respirators do not directly indicate the length of expiratory time and the average expiratory flow rate, we decided to investigate whether pneumoperitoneum really accelerates expiratory flow rate and thus shortens expiratory time.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Furthermore we also intended to investigate which ventilation parameters these changes can be correlated with, elucidating the factors contributing to the acceleration of expiration..

This study aims to uncover the physiological mechanisms behind alterations in respiratory dynamics during and after pneumoperitoneum, offering valuable insights that may aid in refining ventilation strategies in the context of laparoscopic procedures.
