Effect of Intraoperative Lung Recruitment and Transversus Abdominis Plane Block in Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery on Postoperative Lung Functions: A Randomized Controlled Study

Abstract: Background: Morbid obesity may cause a restrictive condition. General Anesthesia (GA) and supine posture both decrease lung capacity and functional residual capacity (FRC), altering the ventilation/perfusion ratio and raising the pulmonary shunt. Objectives: To evaluate the impact of recruitment maneuver (RM) and transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block performed during laparoscopic bariatric surgery on spirometry, oxygenation, opioid requirements, and pain score assessed after surgery. Methods: This pilot pros… Show more
