No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators hypothesize that the lung resection would be associated with lower jugular bulb oxygen saturation in patients with severe pulmonary dysfunction than in patients with healthy lung functions.

Conditions

  • Elective
  • Lung Resection
  • Surgery

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Monitoring of cerebral oxygenation

The internal jugular vein will be cannulated using ultrasound guidance in a cephalad direction, using the Seldinger J-shaped guidewire and it will be advanced only for 2-3 cm beyond the needle insertion site to avoid vascular injury to the jugular bulb. At which point the catheter is advanced until resistance is met at the jugular bulb, usually about 15 cm. The catheter is then pulled back 0.5-1.0 cm so that the catheter does not continue to abut the roof of the jugular bulb and to minimize the cephalad vascular impact with head movement, thereby reducing the risk of vascular injury. Skull x-ray will be used to confirm placement.
