Study summary

This single-center, prospective, randomized, assessor-blinded clinical trial aims to compare the effects of sevoflurane and desflurane anesthesia on intraoperative mechanical power in adult patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power will be measured at three standardized time points using a validated formula, and secondary outcomes include driving pressure values and early postoperative respiratory complications (desaturation, laryngospasm, bronchospasm, cough).

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Arm S- Sevoflurane Group

    Maintenance of general anesthesia with sevoflurane 2% during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power is measured at three intraoperative time points using standardized ventilator settings.

    Drug: Sevoflurane

  • Experimental
    Arm D-desflurane group

    Maintenance of general anesthesia with desflurane 6% during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power is measured at three standardized intraoperative time points under identical ventilator settings.

    Drug: Desflurane

Interventions

  • DrugSevoflurane

    General anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane at 2% concentration in patients assigned to the Sevoflurane Group (Group S). Standardized ventilator settings will be applied for all participants, and mechanical power will be measured at three intraoperative time points while sevoflurane is used as the sole maintenance inhalational agent.

    Also known as: Group S

  • DrugDesflurane

    Maintenance of general anesthesia with desflurane 6% during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mechanical power is measured at three intraoperative time points using standardized ventilator settings.
