Study Summary
The investigators data reveal an important new observation regarding the recovery of breathing during emergence from general anesthesia: respiration resumes as a prolonged abdominal expiration event. The present study aims to further clarify the physiology of recovery of breathing with the addition of a cutaneous monitor for arterial carbon dioxide measurement and a comparison of two different recovery paradigms.
Primary Outcome
The primary variable will be first breath as detected by Respiratory Inductance Plethysmography (RIP. This will occur in the operating room at the end of the surgery and anesthesia.)
Interventions
- OTHER Continuation of High Frequency Jet Ventilation (HFJV)
