Obese Patients, One Lung Ventilation
Conditions
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.
Interventions
We plan to evaluate the improvement on respiratory function with different ventilation I:E ratios (1:2 vs. 1:1) during the one-lung ventilation in an obese patients.
The purpose of our study is to compare the effects of minimal prolonged 1:1 IE ratioventilation on respiratory mechanics and oxygenation with conventional 1:2 IE ratio ventilation during OLV in obese patients.
