Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Pressure controlled ventilation in Trendelenberg position during robotic surgery  Patients randomised to receive pressure controlled ventilation targeting a PaCO2 of 35-40 mm Hg. Arterial samples measured at defined time points and the gradient between arterial and end tidal carbon dioxide obtained 
Comparator Agent  Volume controlled ventilation in trendelenberg position during robotic surgery  Randomised to receive volume controlled ventilation targetted to an end tidal concentration of 35-40 mm Hg. Samples of blood gases at defined time intervals are to be obtained and the arterial to end tidal carbon dioxide gradient measured.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   Minimally invasive surgeries are progressively replacing open surgeries. The ideal ventilatory strategy resulting in optimal lung dynamics is poorly understood.
We aim to evaluate the gradient of arterial carbon dioxide to the end tidal value between pressure and volume controlled ventilation during robotic surgery in the Trendelenberg position.
We also aimed to compare the arterial to alveolar oxygen gradient, peak airway pressures, dynamic compliance and p/F ratio between the two modes with an aim to identify the superior mode for these patients.
