About this trial
The study will investigate how respiratory function is affected by robot-assisted surgery. Previous studies have investigated the impact after open and laparoscopic surgery, but there are no studies yet after robot-assisted surgery.
80 women undergoing robot-assisted hysterectomy will undergo measurements of lung function and oxygen saturation before and after the operation.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Forced vital capacity, FVC
A spirometry including FVC will be performed in the sitting position according to international guidelines.
Secondary outcomes
Oxygen saturation
Oxygen saturation will be performed via a finger probe.
Forced expiratory volume during one second, FEV1
A spirometry including FEV1 will be performed in the sitting position according to international guidelines.
Other outcomes
Patient assessed overall lung function
The patients will assess their overall lung function on a study-specifik numeric rating scale from 0-10 (best)
Peak Expiratory Flow, PEF
A spirometry including PEF will be performed in the sitting position according to international guidelines.
