Conditions

One-Lung Ventilation, Postoperative Respiratory Complications, Driving Pressure

Brief summary

This study aims to prove that driving pressure limited ventilation is superior in preventing postoperative pulmonary complications to existing protective ventilation.

Interventions

Positive end expiratory pressure is adjusted to minimize driving pressure, plateau pressure minus end expiratory pressure from 2 to 10 cmH2O during one-lung ventilation

Inclusion criteria

* Adults greater than or equal to 19 years * Patient who undergoes one-lung ventilation for thoracic surgery

Exclusion criteria

* The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status classification greater than or equal to 4 * Patient who is contraindicated with application of positive end expiratory pressure * Patient who rejects being enrolled in the study

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complicationswithin the first 3 days after surgeryPatient is regarded to have postoperative pulmonary complication when 4 or more positive variables exists according to Melbourne Group Scale.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial bloodduring surgery
The ratio of partial pressure arterial oxygen and fraction of inspired oxygenon the first postoperative dayThe ratio will be obtained from the first arterial blood gas analysis on the first postoperative day.
