Single-lung ventilation in infants and children.
نویسنده
چکیده
During the past decade, the use of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has dramatically increased in children as well as adults. Although VATS can be performed while both lungs are being ventilated, single-lung ventilation (SLV) is desirable during VATS. In addition, anaesthesiologists are performing (and paediatric surgeons are requesting) SLV more frequently for open thoracotomies in infants and children.

Incidence and risk factors of pneumothorax in premature low birth weight infants under mechanical ventilation
Objective: pulmonary air-leakage especially pneumothorax (ptx), is a severe complication in neonates. The aim of this study was to assess the predisposing factors and frequency of ptx among the low birth weight (LBW) premature infants, under mechanical ventilation. Methods: This cross sectional study was performed in 121 LBW intubated premature infants at neonatal intensive care unit of a child...
متن کاملPediatric thoracic anesthesia.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Surgical interventions, including video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries, are increasingly being performed in the neonatal and pediatric populations. Thoracic anesthesia in infants and children poses special challenges for the anesthesiologist. These include assessment of the patient's clinical condition, obtaining and maintaining single lung ventilation, and maintaining adequ...
متن کاملAir Trapping on Chest CT Is Associated with Worse Ventilation Distribution in Infants with Cystic Fibrosis Diagnosed following Newborn Screening
BACKGROUND In school-aged children with cystic fibrosis (CF) structural lung damage assessed using chest CT is associated with abnormal ventilation distribution. The primary objective of this analysis was to determine the relationships between ventilation distribution outcomes and the presence and extent of structural damage as assessed by chest CT in infants and young children with CF. METHO...
متن کاملSingle- and double-lung ventilation in infants and children undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection.
INTRODUCTION Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has gained wide acceptance for the pediatric population. Single-lung ventilation (SLV) has been suggested for thoracoscopic lung resection to provide better surgical exposure, but its role and sequelae compared with double-lung ventilation (DLV) have not been determined. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and effects...
