Diaphragm Dysfunction
Conditions
Brief summary
In children undergoing pulmonary resection, the diaphragm function is evaluated using ultrasound before and after surgery to evaluate the incidence of diaphragm dysfunction after pulmonary resection. In addition, we examine if there is a relationship between diaphragmatic dysfunction and pulmonary complications, including postoperative lung atelectasis.
Interventions
DEVICEDiaphragm ultrasound
Diaphragm ultrasound is performed at the following three time points. 1. At the entrance of the operating room before induction of anesthesia 2. 1 hour after surgery 3. 24 hours after surgery
