Preemptive one lung ventilation enhances lung collapse during thoracoscopic surgery: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, 2019
In routine practice, one lung ventilation (OLV) is initiated upon pleural opening. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare lung collapse after preemptive OLV versus conventional OLV in thoracoscopic surgery.

Modeling-based determination of physiological parameters of systemic VOCs by breath gas analysis: a pilot study

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we develop a simple two compartment model which extends the Farhi equation to the case when the inhaled concentration of a volatile organic compound (VOC) is not zero.
