Brief summary

The purpose of this trial is to determine whether low tidal volume during intraoperative one-lung ventilation could decrease the incidence rate of postoperative acute lung injury compared to normal tidal volume.

Detailed description

Large tidal volume are known risk factor of acute lung injury.Mechanical ventilation with low tidal volume has been shown to attenuate lung injuries in critically ill patients.Esophagectomy surgery need a relatively long time of one-lung ventilation. A normal tidal volume of two-lung ventilation should be a large one when exerted to one lung. We hypothesized that low tidal volume ventilation during one-lung ventilation could decrease incidence rate of postoperative acute lung injury and mortality.

Interventions

set tidal volume of 5ml/kg during one-lung ventilation

keep tidal volume at 8ml/kg during one-lung ventilation

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
cytokines of bronchoalveolar lavage10 minutes before surgery ,at the end of surgery immediatelyTNF-a,IL-1b,IL-6,IL-8 of BAL will be measured with enzyme-linked immunoassay,all markers will be reported with a unit of pg/ml

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
incidence rate of acute lung injuryafter surgery up to 28 daysDiagnosis of acute lung injury is followed the consensus criteria for ALI/ARDS published in Am J Respir Crit Care Med 1994, 149:818-824.
incidence rate of surgical complicationsafter surgery up to 28 dayssurgical complications include anastomotic fistula, postoperative infection and the patients will be followed until death or discharged
postoperative hospital daysafter surgery up to the time when patient is discharged or dead,it is an averageduration of hospital stay after surgery
Oxygenation Index10 minutes before surgery,at the end of surgery immediately,12h after surgeryOxygenation Index=PaO2/FiO2
CT scan of chest12 hours after the surgerySeverity of pulmonary edema will be evaluated by CT scan of chest
inhospital mortalityafter surgery up to 28 daysthe number of death in the period of hospital stay
