Which ventilation mode protects the brain and lungs best during keyhole surgery?

NCT ID NCT06482983

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at 120 women having laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. It compares two ways of using a breathing machine (volume-controlled vs. pressure-controlled ventilation) to see which one better protects lung function and brain oxygen levels during surgery. The goal is to find the safest approach for patients in the head-down position with gas inflation of the abdomen.
