Major Thoracic and Abdominal Surgery
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of the study is to assess the use feasibility of the FreeO2 system so as to deliver automatically oxygen in the post anesthesia care unit in a patient population admitted for major abdominal and thoracic surgery. The investigators' hypothesis is that FreeO2 system will provide a better control of the oxygen saturation and reduce postoperative hypoxaemia.
Interventions
* Automatic adjustment of oxygen through the Free O2 device. * FreeO2 device in mode medical data collecting(SpO2,EtCO2...).
* Manual adjustment of oxygen without the assistance of the FreeO2 device. * Only FreeO2 device in mode medical data collecting(SpO2,EtCO2...).
