Effect of continuous positive airway pressure during one lung ventilation on pulmonary function in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic repair of atrial septal defect / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous positive airway pressure(CPAP)during one lung ventilation on pulmonary function in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic repair of atrial septal defect.Methods Twenty ASA Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 16-30 yr,weighing 41-64 kg,scheduled for video-assisted thoracoscopic repair of atrial septal defect,were randomly divided into 2 groups(n = 10 each) control group and CPAP group.One lung ventilation(VT 8 ml/kg,RR 12-16 bpm,IE 12,PETCO2 35-40 mm Hg)was perform in both groups.CPAP(6 cm H2O)was perform during one lung ventilation in group CPAP.The oxygenation index,pulmonary compliance and airway pressure were recorded during operation.The cardiovascular events,hyoxemia and extubation time were recorded.Results The oxygenation index and pulmonary compliance were significantly higher,extubation time was shorter,and the incidence of hyoxemia was lower in CPAP group than in control group(P ＜ 0.01).The airway pressure was in the normal range in both groups.No cardiovascular events was found in both groups.Conclusion CPAP(6cm H2O)during one lung ventilation can improve the pulmonary function in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic repair of atrial septal defect.
