Summary

This study looks at how different settings on a breathing machine (CPAP) affect heart and lung function in 60 adults with severe obesity (BMI 40 or higher) after they wake up from anesthesia. Participants will try two CPAP settings for 20 minutes each while doctors monitor their breathing and heart function. The goal is to find which setting works better and whether body fat location matters.
