Ventilating the patient with lower (40 or 70%) oxygen concentration during the wash out phase, before extubation
The investigated intervention is the application of 70% inspired oxygen compared to 100% inspired oxygen during the anesthetic washout, right before extubation of the patient for the first 24 enrolled patients, and 40% inspired oxygen compared to 100% inspired oxygen for the subsequently enrolled 24 patients. Before and after the intervention EIT measurements are performed at designated time points to assess lung aeration and calculate the center of ventilation. This information allows assumptions on atelectasis formation in the patients' lung.
