Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Background of the study:
Post-operative respiratory failure, in particular after abdominal surgery and general anesthesia > 2 hours, adds to morbidity and mortality of surgical patients. Lung-protective mechanical ventilation, with the use of positive end-expiratory
pressure (PEEP) and recruitment maneuvers, has the potential to prevent lung injury in patients with injured lungs. It is the
question whether PEEP and recruitment also protects the lungs in patients without previous lung injury.
Objective of the study:
The present study aims at comparing the post-operative lung injury of a lung-protective mechanical ventilation strategy
(with the use of higher levels of PEEP and intra-operative recruitment maneuvers) with conventional mechanical
ventilation (lower levels of PEEP without recruitment) during abdominal non-laparoscopic surgery in patients at high or
intermediate risk for post-operative respiratory failure.
Study design:
Multinational multicentre randomized controlled trial.
Study population:
In total: 900 patients.
In The Netherlands: 100 patients.
Intervention:
The conventional group will be ventilated with low PEEP (maximum 2cm H2O), without recruitment.
The interventional groep will be ventilated with higher PEEP (12cm H2O), with intra-operative recruitment
maneuvres.
Primary study parameters/outcome of the study:
Post-operative pulmonary complications (for definitions see appendix ii):
Mild respiratory failure, severe respiratory failure, ALI/ARDS, suspected pulmonary infection, pulmonary infiltrate, pleural
effusion, atelectasis, pneumothorax, bronchospasm, aspiration pneumonitis, cardiopulmonary edema.
Secundary study parameters/outcome of the study:
Intra-operative complications, need for ICU admission (if not as part of routine) or ICU readmission, hospital-free days at
day 90, post-operative non-pulmonary organ function (see appendix ii); post-operative wound healing; systemic levels of
markers of pulmonary inflammation, acute lung injury and markers of distal organ injury.
