Fraction of Inspired Oxygen and Atelectasis in Children

August 23, 2017 updated by: Jin-Tae Kim, Seoul National University Hospital

Effects of Fraction of Inspired Oxygen on Atelectasis in Mechanically Ventilated Children

Investigators hypothesized that maintaining low fraction of inspired oxygen would be beneficial to prevent anesthesia-induced atelectasis in mechanically ventilated children undergoing general anesthesia.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Control
Perform recruitment maneuver with fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) of 1.0 after intubation under lung ultrasound guidance and maintain FiO2 of 0.6 during the general anesthesia.
Lung ultrasound on both hemithorax in supine position
Appropriate respiratory managements depending on the lung ultrasound findings
Active Comparator: Low FiO2
Perform recruitment maneuver with low FiO2 of 0.3 after intubation under lung ultrasound guidance and maintain FiO2 of 0.3 during the general anesthesia.
Lung ultrasound on both hemithorax in supine position
Appropriate respiratory managements depending on the lung ultrasound findings
