In the researchers' words
This Randomized controlled clinical study, entitled "Effects on Respiratory mechanics of two different ventilation strategies during Robotic- Gynecological surgery", is an original paper. The study was performed in Rome, Italy, from September 2014 to September 2015. Nowadays several studies evaluated the effects of "open lung strategy" and the positive effect of Recruitment Maneuvers and Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) application during general anesthesia, especially during open abdominal surgery and in elderly patients. This is the first study aimed at evaluating two different ventilation strategies in healthy respiratory women undergoing Robotic surgery. In particular, the investigators evaluated the effects of protective ventilation strategy on respiratory mechanics, gas exchange and post-operative respiratory complications compared to standard ventilation.
