Study of Breathing Pressure During Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy and Its Effect on Lung Condition After Surgery

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to explore the connection between intraoperative driving pressure and lung ultrasound scores after surgery in men undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. The study focuses on how factors like pneumoperitoneum and patient positioning during this surgery may affect breathing mechanics. Researchers seek to understand how mechanical ventilation settings might influence lung conditions after the operation. Participants will have their mechanical ventilation monitored during surgery, with special attention to driving pressure. Lung condition will be assessed objectively using lung ultrasound scores measured before anesthesia induction, 30 minutes after surgery, and 24 hours postoperatively. The study also examines anesthesia duration, mechanical power during surgery, arterial blood gas parameters, and the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications. During the study, participants will undergo lung ultrasound assessments at specified times around their surgery. Researchers will collect data on ventilation parameters and blood gases at various points during anesthesia and surgery. The main outcome measured is the change in lung ultrasound score from before surgery to 24 hours after. The study will observe participants up to 24 hours postoperatively to monitor lung health and complications, with total participation spanning the surgical and immediate recovery period.
