Lung Collapse
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to compared the effects in driving pressure of an open-lung strategy with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titrated to best driving pressure (DP) after a RM versus the recommended protective PEEP of 5 cmH2O without a recruitment manuever in non-obese patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Interventions
PEEP titration trial for the lowest DP after the alveolar recruitment maneuver
Fixed standard PEEP after the alveolar recruitment maneuver

Study design
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Non-obese patients scheduled for cardiac surgery (CABG and valve replacement)
Exclusion criteria
* i) age \<18yr or \>80yr, ii) pregnancy or breast-feeding status, and iii) patients with previous known respiratory disease, iv) Body mass index \>35 kg/m2, v) emergency surgery and vi) hemodynamic instability at entry (need of vasopressors or ionotropes at entry or a ventricular assist device.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| driving pressure | intraoperative | The driving pressure is a physiological ventilatory parameter measured as platteau pressure minus PEEP. This parameter may be associated with postoperative pulmonary complications |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Postoperative pulmonary complications | 72 first postoperative hours | The most frequent postoperative pulmonary complications will be recorded (acute respiratory failure, pneumonia, atelectasis, need of ventilatory support, acute respiratory distress syndrome) |
