ABSTRACT: Background
Although the intraoperative alveolar recruitment maneuver (RM) efficiently treats atelectasis, the effect of FIO2 on atelectasis during RM is uncertain. We hypothesized that a high FIO2 (1.0) during RM would lead to a higher degree of postoperative atelectasis without benefiting oxygenation when compared to low FIO2 (0.4).Methods
In this randomized controlled trial, patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position were allocated to low- (FIO2 0.4, n = 44) and high-FIO2 (FIO2 1.0, n = 46) groups. RM was performed 1-min post tracheal intubation and post changes in supine and Trendelenburg positions during surgery. We set the intraoperative FIO2 at 0.4 for bot
