Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

•Acyanotic congenital heart disease patients undergoing cardiac surgery under general anesthesia

Exclusion Criteria

•History of surgery on the lungs
•Cyanotic congenital heart disease
•Abnormal preoperative chest radiograph findings including atelectasis, pneumothorax, pleural effusion, and pneumonia
•Considered inappropriate by the investigator

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Postoperative incidence of SpO2 ≤ 95% (or 10% below the baseline value)

Time Frame: within the first day after surgery

Intraoperative incidence of pulse oximetry (SpO2) ≤ 95% (or 10% below the baseline value)

Time Frame: from the induction of general anesthesia until the end of the surgery, up to 24 hours

Postoperative incidence of respiratory complications

Time Frame: within the first day after surgery

Secondary Outcomes

Postoperative partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) from arterial blood gas analysis(within the first day after surgery)
Intraoperative partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) from arterial blood gas analysis(from the induction of general anesthesia until the end of the surgery, up to 24 hours)
Initial SpO2 on arriving at pediatric intensive care unit(from the end of the surgery until postoperative 1 hour)
Days needed to wean from mechanical ventilation(up to 1 month)
