Summary

This study looks at 144 very overweight adults (BMI 40 or higher) having planned surgery. Doctors will use ultrasound to adjust the air pressure from the breathing mask, aiming to keep the lungs working well without pushing air into the stomach. The goal is to find the safest pressure to avoid stomach inflation and its complications.
