Overview

Brief Summary

Pulmonary complications are the most common complication in thoracic surgery and the leading cause of mortality.Therefore, lung protection is utmost important, and protective ventilation is strongly recommended in thoracic surgery. Protective ventilation is a prevailing ventilatory strategy in these days and is comprised of small tidal volume, limited inspiratory pressure, and application of positive end-expiratory pressure. However, several retrospective studies recently suggested that tidal volume, inspiratory pressure, and positive end-expiratory pressure are not related to patient outcomes, or only related when they influenced the driving pressure. Recently, the investigators reported the first prospective study about the driving pressure-guided ventilation in thoracic surgery. PEEP was titrated to bring the lowest driving pressure in each patient and applied throughout the one lung ventilation. The application of individualized PEEP reduced the incidence of pulmonary complications.However, that study was small size single center study with 312 patients. Thus, investigators try to perform large scale multicenter study. Through this study investigators evaluate that driving pressure-guided ventilation can reduce the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications compared with conventional protective ventilation in thoracic surgery.

Detailed Description

Nowdays, the usual setting of protective ventilation during one lung ventilation is tidal volume (VT) 5 ml/kg of predicted body weight, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 5 cm H2O and plateau pressure (Pplat) less than 25 cmH2O. However, a high incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications is still being observed even with a protective ventilatory strategy. Driving pressure is \[Pplat - PEEP\] and is the pressure required for the alveolar opening. Static lung compliance (Cstat) is expressed as \[VT / (Pplat - PEEP)\]. Thus, driving pressure is also expressed as \[VT / Cstat\]. Driving pressure has an inverse relationship with Cstat and orthodromic relationship with VT according to this formula. High driving pressure indicates poor lung condition with decreased lung compliance. Thus, investigator try to prove that driving pressure limited ventilation is superior in preventing postoperative pulmonary complications to existing protective ventilation in large scale multicenter study. Recruit maneuver perform all group after intubation (stepwise increase of positive end expiratory pressure 5,10,15 cmH2O with tidal volume 5mL/kg). The control arm receives existing conventional protective ventilation with tidal volume of 5mL/kg of ideal body weight and PEEP of 5 cmH2O during one-lung ventilation. The driving pressure arm receives driving pressure limited ventilation with tidal volume of 5mL/kg of ideal body weight and individualized PEEP. Individualized PEEP is adjusted to minimize driving pressure, it find through decremental PEEP titration from 10 to 2 cmH2O during one-lung ventilation.
