Effects of Different Oxygen Concentrations on Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Radical Resection of Esophageal Cancer

Phase 4

Recruiting

• Conditions: Atelectasis, Postoperative
• Interventions: Drug: 60%Oxygen; Drug: 30%Oxygen

• Registration Number: NCT06013098
• Lead Sponsor: China Medical University, China

Brief Summary

Radical operation of esophageal cancer is complicated and traumatic, and ventilation with one lung in lateral position and ventilation with both lungs after supine position requires long-term tracheal intubation and ventilator-assisted ventilation, and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications is high.

Detailed Description

Therefore, we should explore the most appropriate lung protection ventilation strategy to reduce the occurrence of pulmonary complications. The recommended standard of international expert group on lung protective ventilation strategy points out that the lowest concentration of oxygen (≤40%) should be inhaled as much as possible during mechanical ventilation to maintain normal blood oxygen level (SpO2≥94%). If the mixed gas with low inhaled oxygen concentration can achieve ideal oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure, it may reduce the postoperative pulmonary complications of the subjects. However, there are few reports on the influence of different oxygen concentrations on pulmonary complications in patients undergoing radical resection of esophageal cancer. This study intends to explore the influence of different oxygen concentrations on pulmonary complications in patients undergoing radical resection of esophageal cancer.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Experimental: 60% Oxygen	60%Oxygen	Before anesthesia induction, the participants inhaled pure oxygen through the mask for 5 minutes. After successful anesthesia induction, FiO2 will be adjusted to 100% in one lung ventilation and 60% FIO2 in both lungs ventilation, and the total gas flow rate will be set at 2L/min. All patients will be performed via the lung protective ventilation strategy. The respiratory parameters are VT: 6-8ml/kg, PEEP: 6-8 cm H2O, RR: 1:2. Manual lung recruitment maneuvers will be performed after tracheal intubation and before tracheal extubation, however when intraoperative oxygen saturation is less than 92% the manual lung recruitment maneuver will be done too. Arterial blood will be collected for blood gas analysis. Patients in both groups will be extubation the operating room and then sent to the PACU.
Experimental: 30% Oxygen	30%Oxygen	Before anesthesia induction, the participants inhaled pure oxygen through the mask for 5 minuets. After successful anesthesia induction, FiO2 will be adjusted to 60% in one lung ventilation and 30% FIO2 in both lungs ventilation, and the total gas flow rate will be set at 2L/min. All patients will be performed via the lung protective ventilation strategy. The respiratory parameters are VT: 6-8ml/kg, PEEP: 6-8 cm H2O, RR: 1:2. Manual lung recruitment maneuvers will be performed after tracheal intubation and before tracheal extubation, however when intraoperative oxygen saturation is less than 92% the manual lung recruitment maneuver will be done too. Arterial blood will be collected for blood gas analysis. Patients in both groups will be extubation the operating room and then sent to the PACU. patients should transfer to 60% Oxygen group if intraoperative oxygen saturation less than 85%.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
the occurrence of atelectasis	On the operating room within 40 minutes after awakening	The primary outcome is the occurrence of atelectasis scanned by computerized tomography in the operating room within 40 minutes after awakening

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
oxygenation index	On the operating room within 40 minutes after awakening	The secondary outcome is the comparison of the oxygenation index between the two groups, which is calculated and compared from the results of intraoperative blood gas analysis
