Effective ventilation strategies for one-lung ventilation [PDF]
For patients requiring mechanical ventilation during surgery, anesthesia practitioners generally choose between one of two approaches, lung-protective ventilation (LPV) or traditional individual parameter manipulation.

Phenylephrine to Treat Hypoxemia during One-Lung Ventilation in a Pediatric Patient
To improve surgical visualization and facilitate the procedure, one-lung ventilation (OLV) is frequently used during thoracic surgery. Although generally well tolerated, the ventilation–perfusion inequality induced by OLV may lead to a decrease in ...

Oxygen Increases Lung Inflammatory Response in Spontaneous One-Lung Ventilation in Rabbits: A Prospective Randomized Experimental Study [PDF]
Study objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate if oxygen supplementation would increase lung inflammatory response in a spontaneous one-lung ventilation animal model, when compared to room-air oxygen fraction.

Superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation combined with continuous positive airway pressure/assisted spontaneous breathing improves oxygenation in patients with H1N1-associated ARDS [PDF]
Background: Numerous cases of swine-origin 2009 H1N1 influenza A virus (H1N1)-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) bridged by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy have been reported; however, complication rates are high. We

Natural ventilation for the prevention of airborne contagion. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Institutional transmission of airborne infections such as tuberculosis (TB) is an important public health problem, especially in resource-limited settings where protective measures such as negative-pressure isolation rooms are difficult to ...

Effect of one-lung ventilation on end-tidal carbon dioxide during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in a pig model of cardiac arrest. [PDF]
Unrecognized endobronchial intubation frequently occurs after emergency intubation. However, no study has evaluated the effect of one-lung ventilation on end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Intraoperative hypoxemia during one-lung ventilation: Is it still an anesthesiologists' nightmare? (hypoxemia during one-lung ventilation) [PDF]
Lung isolation is used for various surgical and non-surgi-cal reasons. This type of ventilation carries the risk for va-rious degrees of ventilation/perfusion mismatch associa-ted with lateral decubitus position, one-lung ventilation (OLV) and opened ...
