Effect of Intraoperative Salbutamol Administration on Mechanical Power and Respiratory Mechanics in Obese Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery

Sponsor: Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi Gazi Yasargil Training and Research Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of intraoperative salbutamol administration on mechanical power in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery under general anesthesia. Mechanical power will be measured at predefined intraoperative time points (T0, T1, and T2), and changes over time will be compared to determine the impact of salbutamol on the overall energy delivered to the respiratory system during mechanical ventilation. Secondary objectives include the assessment of intraoperative respiratory mechanics, including peak airway pressure (Ppeak), plateau pressure (Pplat), driving pressure (Pdrive), airway resistance (Raw), and lung compliance, as well as gas exchange parameters (SpO₂, EtCO₂) and hemodynamic variables (mean arterial pressure). Postoperative pulmonary outcomes will be evaluated using the Melbourne Group Scale (MGS), with a score greater than 4 indicating the presence of postoperative pulmonary complications. The study aims to investigate whether improvement in intraoperative mechanical power and respiratory mechanics is associated with a reduction in postoperative pulmonary complications in this high-risk population.

Interventions

DRUG

Salbutamol (Ventolin®)

Salbutamol will be administered intraoperatively via the respiratory circuit during mechanical ventilation to assess its effect on mechanical power and respiratory mechanics.

DRUG

Normal Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride)

Normal saline will be administered intraoperatively via the respiratory circuit in the same volume and manner as salbutamol to serve as a placebo
