Summary

To demonstrate that using continuous mechanical lung ventilatory support in combination with Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP)during open heart surgery will improve lung function and decrease lung complications after surgery.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

continuous, mechanical ventilatory support

Those in the treatment group will receive ventilation, intermittent positive pressure ventilation, while their heart is arrested. The subjects will have their lungs ventilated six times per minute with a tidal volume equal to 7-10 milliliters per kilogram. This range, when combined with a consistent PEEP of 5cm of water pressure, will allow for the peak inspiratory pressure to be maintained at or below 40cm of water pressure. In addition, the FIO2 will remain consistent at the same level that was needed to maintain the pulse oximetry at 94% as well as the end-tidal CO2 at 35mmHg.
