No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this prospective observational study is to assess perioperative changes in lung aeration after lung resection surgery using lung ultrasound, and to explore their relationship with oxygenation, inflammatory biomarkers, cardiac stress markers and diaphragmatic function.

Conditions

  • Lung Neoplasm
  • Lung Cancer
  • Lung Resection Surgery
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • One-lung Ventilation (OLV)
  • Postoperative Pulmonary Complications (PPCs)
  • Lung Ultrasound
  • Lung Ultrasound Score

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Perioperative lung ultrasound assessment

Lung ultrasound was performed at three predefined perioperative time points: before surgery, in the immediate postoperative period after extubation, and 24 hours after surgery. Each hemithorax was assessed in six regions, and lung aeration was evaluated using a semiquantitative lung ultrasound score.
