Application of dexmedetomidine for lung injury in elderly patients undergoing one-lung ventilation

open access: yesArchives of Medical Science, 2020
Introduction This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on lung injury, the oxygenation index and perioperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients who underwent thoracotomy with one-lung ventilation (OLV).

Effectiveness of ventilation of nondependent lung for a brief period in improving arterial oxygenation during one-lung ventilation: A prospective study

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2017
Background: Hypoxemia is common during one-lung ventilation(OLV), predominantly due to transpulmonary shunt. None of the strategies tried showed consistent results. We evaluated the effectiveness of ventilating the operated, non-dependent lung (NDL) with

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

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2022
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

Short-term one-lung ventilation does not influence local inflammatory cytokine response after lung resection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: One-lung ventilation (OLV) is a ventilation procedure used for pulmonary resection which may results in lung injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate the local inflammatory cytokine response from the dependent lung after OLV and its ...

Effect of Positive end expiratory pressure during one-lung ventilation on hemodynamics in thoracic surgeries in adult patients

open access: yesSVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
Background: One-lung ventilation (OLV) is a common practice during thoracic surgery involving pulmonary resection to facilitate surgical exposure. For long time, arterial hypoxemia during OLV was is the most important problem for the anesthesiologist ...

One-lung ventilation: For how long? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2007
Lung injury induced by one-lung ventilation is rare, but it is a condition that may result in high mortality. This study evaluates the effects of one-lung ventilation and occlusion time on collapsed and contralateral lungs.Sprague-Dawley rats were allocated randomly into 7 groups consisting of 6 animals each: sham; O1, 1 hour of occlusion/2 hours of re-
