Summary

This trial will study the effects of oxygen on post-anesthesia recovery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults in good to moderate health (ASA I-III), with a BMI under 40, who are scheduled for robotic-assisted kidney removal surgery. It's not open to those with chronic lung disease, severe brain/heart/lung conditions, major psychiatric or untreated thyroid issues, chronic pain on opioid treatment, low blood count or significant blood loss during surgery.
What is being tested?
The study tests if breathing high levels of oxygen after general anesthesia helps patients recover their normal breathing faster. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive extra oxygen or not after they wake up from anesthesia and will be monitored for 90 minutes.
What are the potential side effects?
Inhaling high levels of oxygen can sometimes cause dryness or irritation in the throat and lungs. In rare cases, prolonged exposure may lead to lung damage or changes in blood oxygen levels.
