Which ventilation mode breathes better during laparoscopic surgery?

NCT ID NCT07709039

First seen Jul 16, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial compares two ways of delivering mechanical ventilation—volume-controlled and pressure-controlled—in adults undergoing laparoscopic gallbladder removal under general anesthesia. The goal is to see which mode better maintains lung flexibility and removes carbon dioxide during surgery. Sixty patients aged 25 to 50 with mild or no health issues are randomly assigned to one of the two ventilation methods.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If one ventilation method proves better, it could guide anesthesia practices to improve breathing support during laparoscopic surgeries.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study focused on short-term breathing measures, not long-term outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients or surgeries.
