چکیده
In 22 patients during thoracotomy in the lateral position, the effects of selective positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) to the dependent lung while simultaneously ventilating the non-dependent lung at zero end-expiratory pressure (ZEEP) on (1) inspired O2 concentration required to maintain adequate Pao2 during thoractomy and 2) alveolar-arterial oxygen difference (AaO2D) while breathing 100 percent O2 at the end of thoractomy were examined and compared to ventilation of both lungs at ZEEP, Selective PEEP to the dependent lung resulted in adequate PaO2 with a lower inspired O2 concentration (44 +/- SD 6% versus 70 +/- SD 21%), and a smaller AsO2D while breathing 100 percent O2 189 +/- SD 31 versus 342 +/- SD 69 torr) at the end of thoracotomy.

Effects of PEEP on oxygenation and respiratory mechanics during one-lung ventilation.
BACKGROUND One-lung ventilation-related hypoxaemia (OLV-RH) can occur in patients with healthy lungs. In this case, PEEP frequently improves oxygenation. The aim of this study was to determine, in a healthy lung model of OLV, whether the increase in PEEP improved oxygenation and whether the mechanisms involved include both inspiratory lung recruitment and an end-expiratory lung volume increase....
متن کاملApplication of positive end expiratory pressure during laparoscopic surgery
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Positive-pressure ventilation during general anesthesia is a prerequisite for numerous surgical conditions. Mechanical ventilation is non-physiological and can induce lung injury, although ventilator-induced lung injury may be of minor clinical importance during anesthesia for most patients with healthy lungs. However, growing evidence suggests t...
متن کاملEffect of Different Levels of Peep on Oxygenation during Non-Invasive Ventilation in Patients Submitted to CABG Surgery: Randomized Clinical Trial
INTRODUCTION During and after coronary artery bypass grafting, a decline in multifactor lung function is observed. Due to this fact, some patients may benefit from non-invasive ventilation after extubation targeting lung expansion and consequently improved oxygenation. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that higher levels of positive end expiration pressure during non-invasive ventilation impro...
متن کاملEffects of the beach chair position, positive end-expiratory pressure, and pneumoperitoneum on respiratory function in morbidly obese patients during anesthesia and paralysis.
BACKGROUND The authors studied the effects of the beach chair (BC) position, 10 cm H2O positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and pneumoperitoneum on respiratory function in morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic gastric banding. METHODS The authors studied 20 patients (body mass index 42 +/- 5 kg/m2) during the supine and BC positions, before and after pneumoperitoneum was institu...
متن کاملBedside selection of positive end-expiratory pressure by electrical impedance tomography in hypoxemic patients: a feasibility study
BACKGROUND Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is a key element of mechanical ventilation. It should optimize recruitment, without causing excessive overdistension, but controversy exists on the best method to set it. The purpose of the study was to test the feasibility of setting PEEP with electrical impedance tomography in order to prevent lung de-recruitment following a recruitment maneu...
