Obese

Brief summary

The primary objective of our study will be verify a possible improvement in arterial oxygenation in the obese patient undergoing robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy if the ventilation will be guided by electrical impedance tomography rather than peripheral saturation alone.

Interventions

DEVICEElectrical Impedance Tomography

In 27 patients ventilation will be guided with an Electrical Impedance Tomography system

DEVICEPeripheral arterial Saturation

The ventilation of 27 patients will be guided by Peripheral arterial Saturation alone

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The arterial oxygen pressure / fraction of inspired oxygen (pO2 /FiO2) ratio16 monthsThe primary outcome will be the ratio of arterial oxygen pressure and the fraction of inspired oxygen (pO2 / FiO2 ratio) at the end of the intervention, detected by blood gas analysis.
