One-Lung Ventilation

2017
In this brief review of one-lung ventilation (OLV), we present the case of a patient with lung cancer scheduled to undergo thoracoscopic lobectomy. We review the functional anatomy of the lung, essential components of the preoperative evaluation, concerns specific to patients with lung cancer, smoking cessation, lung isolation techniques with attendant

Intraoperative mechanical ventilation strategies for one-lung ventilation

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2015
One-lung ventilation (OLV) has two major challenges: oxygenation and lung protection. The former is mainly because the ventilation of one lung is stopped while the perfusion continues; the latter is mainly because the whole ventilation is applied to only one lung.
