Clinical Trial: The Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Levels on Perfusion Index and Neurocognitive Functions in Geriatric Patients

U.S., April 2 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07505550) titled 'The Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Levels on Perfusion Index and Neurocognitive Functions in Geriatric Patients' on Feb. 18.

Brief Summary: With the increasing geriatric population, age-related physiological changes and common comorbidities increase the risk of surgical and anesthesia-related complications in this patient group. Therefore, careful planning of anesthesia management and ventilation strategies is crucial to achieve safe and successful clinical outcomes. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), one of these strategies, should be applied with careful consideration of the balance between ensuring oxygenation a...
