Impact of OFA During LPV on Postoperative Oxygen Saturation

About This Study

Opioids used intra operative increase the amount of opioids needed post operative to control post operative pain. if opioids are given post operative, we assume that more atelectasis and hypoxia takes place even after lung protective ventilation. These postoperative lower oxygen saturations will require giving more frequent oxygen therapy.

Conditions Studied

Interventions

• •opioid anesthesia
• •opioid free anesthesia
