Mechanical Properties of the respiratory System in Morbidly Obese patients • Decreased Functional residual capacity • Increased Intra-abdominal Pressure • Increased Alveolar-arterial Oxygenation gradient
Supine Position under General Anesthesia HYPOXEMIA • FRC < Closing Capacity • Unopposed Intra-Abdominal Pressure
Options for Ventilation • P.E.E.P. • Tidal Volume • Respiratory Rate
P.E.E.P. • Maintain the highest mean PaO2 intraOp • NOT sustained postOp • ?benefits in the Morbidly Obese Yakaitis RW Anesth Analg 1975;54:427-32
“Does PEEP Improve Intraoperative Arterial Oxygenation in Grossly Obese Patients?” • Constant Tidal Volume = 1000-1200cc • Respiratory Rate = 9–12/min • PEEP = 10 – 12cm H2O ABG analysis 5 minutes before and at 2, 4, 20, and 30 minutes following discontinuation of PEEP Salem MR Anesth 1978:48:280-81
Effects of Discontinuing PEEP on A-a pO2 Salem MR Anesth 48:281,1978
Discontinuation of PEEP resulted in significant increase in Arterial O2 tension • high Tidal Volumes • Redistribution of Pulmonary Blood flow • Increased intrathoracic press
