Alveolar Recruitment Maneuvers for One-Lung Ventilation During Thoracic Anesthesia

Abstract: Especially during thoracic surgery, anesthesiologists have to cope with both the drastic alteration of normal pulmonary physiology and the mechanical stress on the lung tissue induced by ventilation. These problems result from the total collapse of the lung being operated on and the partial collapse of the ventilated other lung. In addition, technical factors inherent to thoracic surgery and the patient's condition potentiate such adverse effects. Traditional ventilatory settings described for thoracic surgery… Show more

“…Whether additional RM are to be employed routinely or just in case of desaturation is yet to be determined. A final RM after the re-expansion of the non-ventilated lung is recommended (50), and it should be performed at lower pressure levels in order to prevent damage to surgical staples (49,51).…”

“…Because the alveolar dead space comprises alveoli with an excess of ventilation in relation to their perfusion (Fig. To date, alveolar overdistension is the main reason for the high alveolar dead space typically seen during OLV because the tidal volume of 6 ml/kg currently recommended is deemed excessive for ventilating the dependent single lung [32], which receives an increased perfusion due to the effects of gravitational forces [33].

“…This LPV combines the use of low tidal volume and plateau pressure with sufficient levels of PEEP [40]. We believe that this tidal volume is still excessively high during OLV due to obvious anatomical and physiological reasons [32]. However, the recommended tidal volume of 6 ml/kg during TLV needs to be revisited for OLV.…”
