Brief summary
This prospective randomized comparative study, to assess post-operative lung atelectasis by comparing calculated lung score using ultrasound between pediatric patients intubated with LMA (laryngeal mask airway) under volume versus pressure controlled modes of ventilation.
Detailed description
The initial US scanning will be done prior to the induction of anesthesia. Induction of anesthesia using 4% sevoflurane. Adequate size LMA will be inserted after adequate depth of anesthesia adjusted. Group A (n=25): will receive pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV). Group B (n=25): will receive volume-controlled ventilation (VCV). US scanning and Arterial blood gases at the following: * T1(After maintenance of anesthesia). * T2 (One minute after applying groin bandage and before extubation). * T3 (10 minutes after extubation and resumption of adequate regular breathing). * T4 (30 min post extubation).
Interventions

Study design
Masking description
Patients will be randomly allocated by a computer-generated list (www.randomization.com) into one of the study groups in the day of the study . The randomization sequence will be concealed in sealed envelopes and will be opened by an independent nurse. The data collector and data analysis will be blind to group assignments.
Intervention model description
For group A pressure control ventilation will be adjusted as follows: Inspiratory pressure will be adjusted to achieve an expired tidal volume of 7 ml/Kg, respiratory rate will be adjusted to achieve an end ETCO2 at 32-35 mmHg, inspiratory to expiratory ratio at 1:2, PEEP at 4 cm H 2 O and FiO2 at 0.5 providing that the maximum airway pressure will be limited to 25 cmH2O. For group B volume control ventilation will be adjusted as follows: tidal volume (VT) adjacent to 7 ml/Kg, respiratory rate will be adjusted to achieve an end ETCO2 at 32-35 mmHg and I/E at: 1:2 and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP)at 4 cmH2O and FiO2 at 0.5.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Pediatric patients undergoing cardiac catheterization procedures. Age from 2 years to 6 years of both sexes.
Exclusion criteria
* Lung score at different times. * Age <2 years and >6 years. * Preoperative mechanical ventilation. * Heart failure (any inotropic support infusion). * Patients with any lung diseases( acute respiratory disease, pulmonary or lung * diseases). * Lung consolidation score ≥ 2 before insertion of LMA. * Any contraindication for LMA insertion (risk for aspiration, and/or airway * obstruction below the larynx.) * Procedures exceeding 120 mins duration.
