Recovery of Ventilation After Anesthesia for Laparoscopic Nephrectomy
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT04723433
Purpose
The purpose of this randomized, controlled feasibility investigation is to characterize
pharmacologically induced ventilatory depression after anesthesia and examine how is affected
by the amount of supplemental oxygen patients are receiving in the immediate postoperative
period.
