Inhaled epoprostenol during one-lung ventilation.

Ann Thorac Surg

Department of Anesthesiology, Baystate Medical Center, Tufts University School of Medicine, Springfield, Massachusetts 01199, USA.

Published: March 2010

We used inhaled epoprostenol (with intravenous phenylephrine) during one-lung ventilation to improve oxygenation in a patient with severe interstitial lung disease undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The pharmacologic manipulation of pulmonary blood flow remains an underused strategy for the management of hypoxemia during one-lung ventilation.

Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis: A Rare Diagnosis in Pediatric Age.

J Investig Med High Impact Case Rep

March 2025

Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade do Porto, Porto, Portugal.

Autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (AI-PAP) is a rare condition, especially in children. The clinical presentation ranges from asymptomatic forms to respiratory distress requiring ventilation. We describe the case of a 13-year-old adolescent male who presented to the emergency department with acute pleuritic chest pain not associated with systemic complaints.

Background: With increasing early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) diagnoses, sublobar resections including segmentectomy and wedge resection have become commonly used in clinical settings. The success of lung segment surgery hinges on the accurate identification of intersegmental planes (ISPs), which is typically achieved by the modified inflation-deflation method; however, this technique is associated with a prolonged duration for identifying ISP. The "partial pressure of oxygen control method" represents an optimization of the inflation-deflation technique, designed to facilitate rapid identification of ISP during surgical procedures.

Background: Minimally invasive thoracic surgery is the most frequently used approach for lung resection to minimize surgical stress on the patient. To further reduce invasiveness, the non-intubated spontaneous ventilation method is applied on the anesthesia side. However, due to the unsafe airway associated with this procedure, this method is not widely adopted.

Unlabelled: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause for global infant morbidity and mortality. The COVID-19 pandemic caused significant shifts in seasonality of RSV, and changes in disease severity have been matter of intense discussion. Between September 2020 and February 2023, the multicentric, prospective PAPI study analyzed rates and phenotypes of hospitalized RSV patients aged ≤ 24 months across three German hospitals.

Objective: This systematic review aimed to analyze, in neonates, the effects of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) with volume-targeted (VT) compared with conventional HFOV.

Sources: The authors searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrials.gov from inception until August 4th, 2024, to identify studies comparing HFOV with and without VT in neonates under 44 weeks corrected age.
