Comparison of Two Strategies of One-lung Ventilation in Patients Undergoing Carcinological Lung Resection Surgery.
During thoracic surgery, one-lung ventilation (OLV) is associated with hypoxemia, lung injury, and perioperative respiratory complications. The level of positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) to apply during OLV remains controversial. The open-lung approach consists in setting a level of PEEP corresponding to the best lung compliance, using an esophageal catheter to …
