Echocardiographic Evaluation of the Change on Pulmonary Blood Flow and Cardiac Function Induced by Capnothorax During One Lung Ventilation

NCT02220231 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 25

Summary

Video-assisted thoracoscopic extended thymectomy (VATET) is a minimally-invasive method for excision of mediastinal mass instead of open thymectomy. The iatrogenic capnothorax with one-lung ventilation during VATET may cause hemodynamic instability due to the compression of intrathoracic structures. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of capnothorax on the pulmonary blood flow and cardiac function during the VATET by using the transesophageal echocardiography.

Conditions

  • Mediastinal Tumors

Interventions

PROCEDURE

capnothorax

After patient positioning, the capnothorax will be created by insufflation of carbon dioxide in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic extended thymectomy.
