ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a technique called the alveolar recruitment maneuver, which helps improve breathing during anesthesia for patients who are severely obese and undergoing bariatric surgery. The aim is to see how this technique affects oxygen levels and helps prevent complications related to low oxygen in the lungs during and after surgery. The researchers will also look at a measurement called the Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi), which shows how well oxygen is being delivered in the blood.

To participate, you need to be between 18 and 65 years old, have a body mass index (BMI) over 40, and be scheduled for bariatric surgery that requires general anesthesia. However, if you have certain health issues, like a history of lung problems or recent chest surgery, you may not be eligible. If you join the trial, you can expect to receive standard care during your surgery, with some additional monitoring to track your oxygen levels. This study could help improve care for patients with obesity in the future.
