Desflurane improves lung collapse more than propofol during one-lung ventilation and reduces operation time in lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background This study evaluated whether desflurane improved lung collapse during one-lung ventilation (OLV) more than propofol, and whether it could reduce the operation time of video-assisted thoracic surgery. Methods Sixty patients undergoing lobectomy

Effects of the disconnection technique and preemptive one-lung ventilation on lung collapse during one-lung ventilation in thoracoscopic surgery [PDF]
Background During thoracoscopic surgery with one-lung ventilation (OLV), achieving lung collapse is critical for providing surgeons with a good visibility of the surgical field and to minimise tissue compression. The aim of this study was to evaluate the

Protective strategies for one-lung ventilation [PDF]
Hypoxemia and acute lung injury (ALI) are major concerns with one-lung ventilation (OLV) during thoracic surgery. Hypoxemia is usually the result of alveolar hypoventilation and an increasing shunt fraction, whereas ALI is caused by ventilatory stress (volutrauma, atelectrauma, and barotrauma), re-expansion pulmonary injury, and the lung surgery itself.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure versus Differential Lung Ventilation during One Lung Ventilation for Thoracic Surgery [PDF]
Introduction: One lung ventilation (OLV) is a technique used during lung resection surgery to facilitate optimal surgical conditions. However, this may result in severe hypoxemia due to the right-to-left shunt created in the collapsed lung.

Lung-protective ventilation during one-lung ventilation: known knowns, and known unknowns [PDF]
More than 230 million patients undergo major surgical procedures every year worldwide (1), among whom 16% to 18% will develop major postoperative complications (2,3), which negatively affect morbidity, mortality, healthcare cost, and quality of life. Patients undergoing thoracic surgery are at a higher risk of postoperative complications, especially ...

Curious case of pediatric one-lung ventilation with two endotracheal tubes: A case report [PDF]
One-lung ventilation is indicated during thoracic surgery for visualization and exposure of surgical site. It is achieved with bronchial blockers, double-lumen endobronchial tube, single-lumen endotracheal tubes and Univent tube for infants and children.

Strategic ventilation reduces non-ventilated contralateral lung injury induced by one-lung ventilation in rabbits [PDF]
One lung ventilation (OLV) often results in trauma to the unventilated contralateral lung. This study aims to evaluate the effects of different OLV regimens on the injury of the unventilated contralateral lung to identify the best conditions for OLV ...
