Evaluation of the Effects of Different Ventilation Modes Used During Anesthesia Awakening on the Frequency of Postoperative Atelectasis
Sponsor: Dokuz Eylul University
Summary
In our study, we aimed to detect atelectasis developing in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia using transthoracic lung ultrasonography and to investigate the effect of ventilation methods used during recovery from anesthesia on the formation of postoperative atelectasis.

lung ultrasound
The patients included in the study underwent lung imaging with lung ultrasound score twice, in the preoperative preparation room and in the postoperative recovery unit.Both lungs were determined as anterior and posterior axillary lines as anatomical markers and divided into a total of 12 regions, 4 in the anterior thoracic wall, 4 in the lateral wall, and 4 in the posterior region. In our study, we will use the modified LUS scoring, which has been shown to be more sensitive in the diagnosis of postoperative atelectasis in the recovery unit, based on existing literature reviews. The degree of the atelectasis will be determined according to do modified lung ultrasound score. Lung ultrasound score imaging of all patients was performed by the same anesthesiologist.
