1. The Immune Response to One-Lung Ventilation : Clinical and Experimental Studies
Sammanfattning : One-lung ventilation (OLV) as an established procedure during thoracic surgery may be injurious in terms of increased mechanical stress characterised by alveolar cell stretch and overdistension, increased cyclic tidal recruitment of alveolar units, compression of alveolar vessels and increased pulmonary vascular resistance. This may result in ventilation-induced lung injury with pro-inflammatory cytokine production, leukocyte recruitment and neutrophil-dependent tissue destruction. LÄS MER
2. Pathophysiological and Histomorphological Effects of One-Lung Ventilation in the Porcine Lung
Sammanfattning : Thoracic surgical procedures require partial or complete airway separation and the opportunity to exclude one lung from ventilation (one-lung ventilation, OLV). OLV is commonly associated with profound pathophysiological changes that may affect the postoperative outcome. LÄS MER
3. Open lung concept in high risk anaesthesia : Optimizing mechanical ventilation in morbidly obese patients and during one lung ventilation with capnothorax
Sammanfattning : Formation of atelectasis, defined as reversible collapse of aerated lung, often occurs after induction of anaesthesia with mechanical ventilation. As a consequence, there is a risk for hypoxemia, altered hemodynamics and impaired respiratory system mechanics. LÄS MER
4. Remote Ischemic Preconditioning and its Effects on the Respiratory System
Sammanfattning : Mechanical ventilation in itself can lead to pulmonary damage, and one-lung ventilation (OLV), necessary for thoracic surgery, accentuates this injury. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIP) is a potential tool to reduce lung injury after mechanical ventilation, including OLV. However, current data on pulmonary RIP-effects are contradictory. LÄS MER
5. Cardiopulmonary adaption to one-lung ventilation and neoadjuvant therapy during treatment of esophageal cancer
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Esophagectomy is the main form of curative treatment for esophageal cancer and has a high morbidity rate. Neoadjuvant chemo- (CT) or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is employed to increase long-term survival. To improve perioperative care the effects of measures taken to improve surgical exposure i.e. LÄS MER
