Physiology of One-Lung Ventilation
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 1997The understanding of the physiology and management of one-lung ventilation (OLV) has advanced over the last two decades. OLV induces an obligatory shunt through the nonventilated lung that causes varying degrees of arterial hypoxemia. Shunt may also occur in the venti lated lung.

Paediatric one lung ventilation in the prone position
Pediatric Anesthesia, 1997Pulmonary lobectomy in the presence of infected secretions requires isolation of the affected lung to prevent soiling of the healthy lung. In young children this is usually accomplished using a Fogarty embolectomy catheter. We report the successful combination of a Fogarty catheter, a tracheal tube and the prone position, which provided adequate ...

Troubleshooting One-Lung Ventilation
2019Despite more reliable methods to ensure lung isolation, hypoxia during one-lung ventilation (OLV) can still be a challenge for the anesthesiologist. While a true lower acceptable limit of saturation has not been defined, and is likely different for different patients, cerebral oxygenation does fall significantly during thoracic anesthesia cases, and ...

Physiology of One-Lung Ventilation
2011Published estimates of the incidence of hypoxemia during one-lung ventilation (OLV) have decreased from 25% in the 1970s to currently less than 10% (1 2). Technical improvements (fiberoptic bronchoscopy, DLT design, etc.) account for some of this progress (Chapter 8). Improved understanding of the physiology of OLV has also contributed importantly and
