Summary:Objective: This study aimed to investigate whether lung mechanics were affected in patients recovering from Covid-19 without ARDS who did not undergo lung imaging during the active infection period. Methods: The study included pregnant patients undergoing cesarean section operations. Participants were divided into two groups: those who had recovered from Covid-19 within the past year (group 1, n=50) and those who had never been infected with Covid-19 (group 2, n=50). The study included 100 patients divided into two groups: those who had recovered from Covid-19 within the last year (group 1, n=50) and those who had never experienced Covid-19 infection (group 2, n=50). Peak pressure (Ppeak), plateau pressure (Pplato), dynamic compliance (Cdyn), and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) values, measured by the anesthesia machine, were recorded at specified time intervals following intubation. Results: Comparisons of Ppeak, Pplato, ΔP, Cdyn, and R data at specified times (1 min, 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, and 40 min) showed no significant differences between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: No significant differences in lung mechanics were found between the Covid-19-recovered patient group and the control group. Differences observed in SpO2, MAP, and Cdyn values in both groups are considered to be expected changes associated with routine procedures of general anesthesia
