About this study

In this prospective, randomized trial, including patients scheduled for a major open or laparoscopic abdominal surgery (duration >2 hours) under general anesthesia , the investigators will compare 2 strategies of protective mechanical ventilation: a fixed intraoperative PEEP of 6 cmH2O and an individualized intraoperative PEEP according to the driving pressure.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomized into 2 groups:

  • Fixed PEEP group: will receive protective intraoperative mechanical ventilation: tidal volume: 6 ml/kg of PBW, recruitment maneuvers every immediately after tracheal intubation and every 2 hours and a fixed PEEP of 6 cmH2O
  • Individualized PEEP: protective mechanical ventilation with the same modality with an individualization of PEEP levels hourly in order to achieve the lowest driving pressure. PEEP levels will be adjusted after intubation and hourly by increasing or decreasing PEEP levels every 10 respiratory cycles.

The primary outcome: incidence of post operative pulmonary complications during the first post operative days.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. incidence of pulmonary post operative complications

    SpO2< 92%, new chest Xray infiltrates, acute respiratory failure requiring intervention

    Measured: first 7 post operative days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. lung aeration score (LAS)

    assessment LAS with lung ultrasound minimum 0 maximum: 36 (worse outcome)

    Measured: day 1, day 3 and day 7 after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Peep individualization in people with Mechanical Ventilation Complication, run by Mongi Slim Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mhamed Sami Mebazaa, full prof (0021622252589, msmebazaa@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of pulmonary post operative complications (time frame: first 7 post operative days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
