The Effect of Flow-Controlled Ventilation on Mechanical Power in Laparoscopic Surgeries: A Comparative Analysis with Pressure Controlled Volume Guaranteed and Volume Controlled Ventilation

Contrary to our hypothesis, FCV did not reduce MP more effectively than either VCV or PCV-VG. However, PCV-VG demonstrated better mitigation of insufflation-induced increases in MP, suggesting potential advantages for lung protection during laparoscopy. Further prospective studies are needed to assess clinical outcomes.
