The steep trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgery have the potential to cause an adverse effects on respiratory mechanics and gas exchange. Previous studies have proposed that a prolonged I:E ratio ventilation improved respiratory mechanics and gas exchange. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate whether a prolonged I:E ratio ventilation improves gas exchange and respiratory mechanics in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

80 patients are randomly allocated into two groups : prolonged I:E ratio (1:1) (n=40) and conventional I:E ratio (1:2) group (n=40). In the prolonged I:E ratio (1:1), mechanical ventilation is maintained with during I:E ratio 1:1 during steep trendelenburg with pneumoperitoneum.

The peak inspiratory pressure
The peak inspiratory pressure during mechanical ventilation with endotracheal intubation under general anesthesia
Time frame: before 10 minutes after anesthesia induction, 30 and 60 minutes after steep trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum, and 10 minutes after supine position and CO2 desufflation
