Summary

the aim of this prospective randomized blinded clinical study will be to assess the ultrasound evaluation of different preventive measures of post operative lung atelectasis in abdominal surgeries; these measures include ventilation and fluid measures

Detailed description

ultrasound evaluation for application of different preventive measures of post operative lung atelectasis, including positive end-expiratory pressure, lung recruitment maneuvers, and restrictive fluid management.

Conditions

• Pulmonary Atelectasis, Postoperative

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	PEEP	Patients will be ventilated with PEEP of 8 cm H2O and fluid management: 500 ml of Ringer's lactate in the recovery room before surgery and Ringer's lactate at a rate of 4 mL/kg/hour from the beginning to the end of the surgery.
OTHER	PEEP/RM	Patients will be ventilated with PEEP of 8 cm H2O, and then RM (30 cm H2O for 30 s) will be applied immediately after the second LUS examination and repeated every 30 minutes till emergence and fluid management: 500 ml of Ringer's lactate in recovery room before surgery and Ringer's lactate at a rate of 4 mL/kg/hour from the beginning to the end of the surgery
OTHER	PEEP/RM/RF	Patients will be ventilated with PEEP of 8 cm H2O, and then RM (30 cm H2O for 30 s) will be applied immediately after the second LUS examination and repeated every 30 minutes till emergence and restrictive fluid management (RF). Ringer's lactate at a rate of 3 mL/kg/hour from the beginning to the end of the surgery
