The Comparison of the Effect of Pressure-controlled Ventilation and Volume-controlled Ventilation on the Gastric Insufflations in I-gel

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the pressure controlled ventilation can reduce gastric insufflation compared to the volume controlled ventilation in patients who were mechanically ventilated with the i-gel.

Treatment and study plan

Volume-controlled ventilation

Other

I-gel will be inserted into the patient's mouth. After confirmation of adequate ventilation with the i-gel, the patient's lungs will be mechanically ventilated using the volume-controlled mode with tidal volume 8 ml/kg during surgery.

Pressure-controlled ventilation

Other

I-gel will be inserted into the patient's mouth. After confirmation of adequate ventilation with the i-gel, the patient's lungs will be mechanically ventilated using the pressure-controlled mode with tidal volume 8 ml/kg during surgery.

Primary outcomes

gastric antral area

Time frame: Within 5 minutes after the end of surgery

The gastric antral area will be measured using ultrasonography.
