Study population: 200 patients who will be operated for laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Erciyes University between May 2023 and Oct 2023 will be included in our study.

Brief summary: In laparoscopic surgeries; a trocar is inserted through a small incision and an intervention is made into the peritoneal cavity. Approximately 3-4 liters of carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation (inflating the abdominal cavity with carbon dioxide gas) is applied and the intra-abdominal pressure is adjusted to 10-20 mmHg. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy operation is routinely performed with 12 mmHg and 14 mmHg pressures in our operating room, and the preferred pressure value is; It is determined by the surgical team to be the most appropriate value for the patient and the operation. Both pressure values applied to the patients intraoperatively are within safe ranges.

The mechanical power of ventilation (MP) is the amount of energy transferred per unit time from the mechanical ventilator to the respiratory system. Although this energy is mainly used to overcome airway resistance, some of it directly affects the lung tissue, potentially causing ventilator induced lung injury (VILI). To prevent ventilator-associated lung injury, it requires the mechanical ventilator to be adjusted so that the least amount of energy is transferred to the respiratory system per unit time for each patient. In the results obtained in the published studies; increased mechanical strength has been associated with increased in-hospital mortality, higher hospital stay and higher ICU follow-up requirement.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two different intra-operative intra-abdominal pressure levels applied to patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia on 'Mechanical Power (MP)'.

Detailed description: In laparoscopic surgeries; a trocar is inserted through a small incision and an intervention is made into the peritoneal cavity. Approximately 3-4 liters of carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation (inflating the abdominal cavity with carbon dioxide gas) is applied and the intra-abdominal pressure is adjusted to 10-20 mmHg. Intra-abdominal pressure is continuously measured by pressure monitoring, which is routinely performed during laparoscopic procedures. The applied intra-abdominal pressure is determined by the surgical team and the most optimal value that creates pneumoperitoneum for the patient is preferred. Abdominal compartment syndrome can be seen due to abdominal hypertension at intra-abdominal pressure values above 20 mmHg.

Both pressure values aimed to be applied in this study are applied in laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations and do not cause any harm to the patient and their superiority to each other has not been determined.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy operation is routinely performed with 12 mmHg or 14 mmHg pressures in our operating room. Both pressure values applied to the patients intraoperatively are within safe ranges.

The mechanical power of ventilation (MP) is the amount of energy transferred per unit time from the mechanical ventilator to the respiratory system. Although this energy is mainly used to overcome airway resistance and respiratory system compliance, some of it directly affects the lung tissue, potentially causing ventilator induced lung injury (VILI).

MP is a summary variable that includes several components, including tidal volume (VT ), peak pressure (Ppeak), driving pressure (Driving Pressure, ΔP), and respiratory rate (RR). These components; requires that the mechanical ventilator be adjusted so that the least amount of energy is transferred to the respiratory system per unit time for each patient in order to prevent ventilator-associated lung injury.

In the researches; a relationship between mechanical power (MP) and complications such as ventilator-associated lung injury (VILI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been found. The findings suggest that the mechanical force applied to the lungs should be reduced during intraoperative ventilation in patients undergoing major surgery. In adult patients undergoing general anesthesia during major surgical operations, higher patient exposure to ventilation as measured by higher mechanical power; it has been shown that it is associated with an increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications and acute respiratory failure in the first 7 days of the postoperative period.

In the results obtained in the published studies; increased mechanical strength has been associated with increased in-hospital mortality and higher hospital stay and higher ICU follow-up requirement.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two different intra-operative intra-abdominal pressure levels applied to patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia on 'Mechanical Power (MP)'.
