Effects of 1:1 Inspiratory to Expiratory Ratios on Oxygenation and Intrapulmonary Shunt Fraction During One Lung Ventilation in the Obese Patients

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Obese Patients, One Lung Ventilation
Registration Number
NCT02185378
Lead Sponsor
Yonsei University
Brief Summary

One-lung ventilation, even in patients with healthy weight, causes an impairment in gas-exchange and respiratory mechanics. We hypothesized that oxygenation during the one-lung ventilation in obese patients would be improved by applying inverse-ratio ventilation, reducing atelectasis in the dependent lung and resulting in reduced shunt. Because of the restrictive ventilatory effects of obesity, these patients often show a decreased functional residual capacity and decreased expiratory reserve volume, leading to an overall decreased tidal volume. These reduction leads to arterial hypoxemia, V-Q mismatch and Rt to Lt shunting. There are few studies on the one lung ventilation in obese patients about this prolonged inspiratory time ventilatory method. We plan to investigate the effect of this ventilation method in obese patients during one lung ventilation.
