Summary

The investigators hypothesized that the application of volume-controlled HFPPV to the non-dependent lung during one-lung ventilation (OLV) for thoracotomy in patients with good pulmonary functions and mild-to-moderate pulmonary dysfunction may provide preservation of the right ventricular (RV) function, adequate oxygenation and optimum surgical conditions.

The investigators evaluated the effects of IL-HFPPV on RV ejection fraction (REF), RV end-diastolic volume (RVEDVI), RV stroke work (RVSWI), pulmonary vascular resistance (PVRI), and stroke volume (SVI) indices, oxygen delivery (DO2) and uptake (VO2), shunt fraction (Qs: Qt), and surgical field conditions during OLV for thoracotomy in patients with good and mild-to-moderate impaired pulmonary functions.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

conventional OLV followed with IL-HFPPV

The patients' lungs were mechanically ventilated with intermittent positive pressure ventilation using fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) of 0.5 in air, tidal volume (VT) of 8 mL/kg, inspiratory to expiratory \[I: E\] ratio of 1:2.5, zero positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), respiratory rate (R.R) was adjusted to achieve an arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) 35-45 mm Hg and peak inspiratory pressures were limited to 35 cm H2O. After pleurotomy, OLV was initiated with the same ventilatory settings for the dependent lung. After 30 min, the non-dependent collapsed lung was ventilated using HFPPV mode (IL-HFPPV) with another identical ventilator, with an internal circuit of low compliance, using FiO2 of 0.5 in air, VT 3 mL/kg, I: E ratio \<0.3 and R.R 60 breaths/min.
