Can a lung maneuver reveal fluid needs during surgery?
NCT ID NCT04118244
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a lung recruitment maneuver (a brief increase in airway pressure) can help doctors decide if a patient needs more fluids during surgery with protective lung ventilation. 48 adults undergoing abdominal surgery participated. The goal was to see if changes in heart and lung measurements during the maneuver could predict fluid responsiveness.
