About

To observe the effect of compliance guided an optimal Positive End-Expiratory Pressure（PEEP）on arterial oxygenation and intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation(OLV)，and discuss the lung protective effect of optimal PEEP during one-lung ventilation.

Full description

Sixty patients undergoing thoracic surgery were randomly allocated to the study or control group.Patients were monitored for electrocardiogram, pulse oximetry, and non-invasive blood pressure,20 gauge cannula needle for radial artery catheterization under local anesthesia, monitoring ABP.,the right subclavian vein was selected for catheterization under local anesthesia,monitoring CVP.Anesthesia was induced with sufentanil 0.4 μg/kg, propofol 2 mg/kg, and cisatracurium 0.3 mg/kg.The trachea was intubated with a double-lumen tube (DLT)，37F for male and 35F for female patients.Tube position was confirmed by bronchoscopy in the supine and lateral positions.Anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane 1.0-1.5 vol%，propofol 2-4 mg/(kg·h) and remifentanil 0.1-0.2 μg/(kg·min) and intermittent cisatracurium 0.06-0.1 mg/kg.The lungs were initially ventilated using a volume-controlled ventilation mode,two-lung ventilation(TLV):tidal volume (VT) 8 ml/kg,respiratory rate 12-14 bpm, inspiratory:expiratory (I:E) ratio 1:2, in 60% oxygen without PEEP. During OLV, VT was reduced to 6 ml/kg,OLV was initiated at the moment of skin incision.Both groups received an alveolar recruitment maneuver(increase inspiratory pressure to 30cmH2O for 10s) at the 10min after one-lung ventilation. After the alveolar recruitment maneuver,the study group titrate PEEP from 4cmH2O,increased in 2cmH2O steps and hold at each step for 1min,and the static pulmonary compliance(Cst) would be record.Optimal PEEP was determined until the maximal static pulmonary compliance was obtained.In the control group at PEEP level of 5 cmH2O was established and maintained during the study period.Blood gas analyses, respiratory variables, and hemodynamic variables were recorded at 6 different time points:10 min after TLV(T0), 10min after OLV(T1), 30min after PEEP(T2), 60min after PEEP(T3), 10min after the end OLV(T4) and 20min after extubation(T5).
