Individualized Positive End-expiratory Pressure Evaluation Using the Intratidal Compliance-volume Profile in Children

March 24, 2020 updated by: Jin-Tae Kim, Seoul National University Hospital
The investigators assess the changes in respiratory compliance according to different levels of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) in children under general anesthesia. In addition, the investigators evaluate the intratidal compliance-volume profile at each PEEP level and determine the optimal PEEP level during anesthesia.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: DIAGNOSTIC
  • Allocation: NA
  • Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Children
Children who receive elective surgery under general anesthesia and are supported by mechanical ventilation
The different levels of PEEP, 5 cmH2O, 8 cmH2O and 12 cmH2O, are applied serially. Mean respiratory compliance and intratidal compliance-volume profile are evaluated.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean respiratory compliance
Time Frame: During 15 minutes after applying each level of PEEP
Mean static and dynamic compliance
During 15 minutes after applying each level of PEEP

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Compliance profile
Time Frame: During 15 minutes after applying each level of PEEP

We will determine Intratidal compliance-volume profile using the changes in compliance over time

--> I, merely increasing compliance profile; IH, increasing turning into horizontal compliance profile; D, merely decreasing compliance profile; HD, horizontal turning into decreasing compliance profile; IHD, increasing turning into horizontal and further turning into decreasing compliance profile

If compliance profile is I, the PEEP is low. On the other hand, compliance profile is D, PEEP level is considered to be high.

During 15 minutes after applying each level of PEEP
Airway resistance
Time Frame: During 15 minutes after applying each level of PEEP
Mean airway resistance
During 15 minutes after applying each level of PEEP
