Phenylephrine to Treat Hypoxemia during One-Lung Ventilation in a Pediatric Patient
The Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2013 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 ...

In silico modeling of oxygen-enhanced MRI of specific ventilation. [PDF]
, 2018 Specific ventilation imaging (SVI) proposes that using oxygen-enhanced 1H MRI to capture signal change as subjects alternatively breathe room air and 100% O2 provides an estimate of specific ventilation distribution in the lung.

Effect of one-lung ventilation on end-tidal carbon dioxide during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in a pig model of cardiac arrest. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 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).
