Perioperative changes in functional residual capacity in morbidly obese patients.
Functional residual capacity (FRC) was measured before and after induction of anaesthesia for jejunoileal bypass surgery in 30 morbidly obese patients. The onset of anaesthesia was associated with a 51% reduction in FRC from 2.2 litre to 1.0 litre. Eighteen of the patients were investigated more extensively; in these subjects FRC was reduced below the control values of residual volume (RV) with...

متن کاملImprovement in lung function and functional capacity in morbidly obese women subjected to bariatric surgery
OBJECTIVE To determine whether weight loss in women with morbid obesity subjected to bariatric surgery alters lung function, respiratory muscle strength, functional capacity and the level of habitual physical activity and to investigate the relationship between these variables and changes in both body composition and anthropometrics. METHODS Twenty-four women with morbid obesity were evaluate...
متن کاملChanges in functional residual capacity during cardiac surgery.
A gas washout technique was used to measure the functional residual capacity (FRC) in eight patients during anaesthesia for cardiac surgery. The patients were anaesthetized with droperidol, fentanyl and nitrous oxide, alcuronium was given and the lungs were ventilated with a volume controlled ventilator. FRC was measured at three stages before skin incision, after sternotomy but before cardiopu...
متن کاملPEG tube placement in morbidly obese patients.
We present two patients both of whom had severe morbid obesity and needed placement of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) for albumin and visceral protein replenishment. The first patient was a 53-year-old woman (body mass index [BMI], 85.8; weight, 191kg) who presented with respiratory distress and dysphagia; the second was a 26-year-old woman (BMI, 88.6; weight, 259kg) who presented ...
