Objectives: One-lung ventilation is considered to be mandatory in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. However, the authors showed in a previous report that two-lung ventilation with low tidal volume is feasible in thoracoscopic bleb resection (TBR). In this study, they evaluated optimal respiratory rate during TBR under two-lung ventilation with low-tidal volume anesthesia.
Design: A prospective, randomized, single-blinded intervention study.
Setting: An operating room in a teaching hospital.
Participants: Forty-eight patients who underwent scheduled TBR under general anesthesia.
Interventions: TBR was performed under low-tidal-volume (5 mL/kg), two-lung ventilation. Respiratory rate (RR) varied according to the protocol: 15 (group I), 18 (group II), and 22 cycles/min (group III). Using block randomization method, 16 patients were assigned to each of 3 groups.
Measurements And Main Results: Minute ventilation of group I was lowered significantly compared with the other groups (p<0.001). The results of arterial blood gas analysis were in the physiologic range in all patients. Surgery and anesthetic times and number of endostaples used were not significantly different among the 3 groups.
Conclusions: The RR of 15 cycles/min with low-tidal volume (5 mL/kg) and two-lung ventilation did not produce abnormal physiologic changes including arterial pH, partial arterial oxygen pressure, and partial pressure of carbon dioxide and guaranteed an optimal surgical field. Therefore, these setting are considered acceptable for two-lung ventilation during TBR.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored the use of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to evaluate the impact of thoracic epidural blockade (TEB) combined with general anesthesia on lung function during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients undergoing thoracic surgery.
- Thirty patients were randomly assigned to either a control group or a TEB group, where EIT measurements and blood gas analysis were performed to assess pulmonary perfusion distribution and ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) matching at different stages of the procedure.
- Results indicated that TEB significantly decreased mean arterial pressure and worsened arterial oxygen levels and shunt percentages during OLV, suggesting it adversely affected respiratory function in these patients.
Impact of intravenous infusion of lidocaine on intrapulmonary shunt and postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation.

Department of Anesthesiology, Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University, China.
Background: Intravenous infusion of lidocaine as an anesthesia adjuvant can improve patient outcomes, but its impact on intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation (OLV) has not been clarified.
Objectives: To determine the effect of intravenous lidocaine infusion on intrapulmonary shunt during OLV and postoperative cognitive function in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).
Material And Methods: Sixty patients who underwent OLV for thoracic surgery were randomized to receive intravenous infusion of lidocaine (lidocaine group, n = 30) or normal saline (control group, n = 30) for anesthesia induction.

Background: Our aim was to evaluate the influence of staged goal directed therapy (GDT) on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), intraoperative hemodynamics and oxygenation in patients undergoing Mckeown esophagectomy.
Methods: Patients were randomly divided into three groups, staged GDT group (group A, n = 56): stroke volume variation (SVV) was set at 8-10% during the one lung ventilation (OLV) stage and 8-12% during the two lung ventilation (TLV) stage, GDT group (group B, n = 56): received GDT with a target SVV of 8-12% During the entire surgical procedure, and control group (group C, n = 56): conventional fluid therapy was administered by mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), and urine volume. The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications within Postoperative days (POD) 7.
Repercussions of SARS-CoV-2 infection on intrapulmonary shunt in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines how previous SARS-CoV-2 infections impact intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients undergoing thoracoscopic partial pneumonectomy.
- It included 80 patients divided into four groups: those without SARS-CoV-2 infection and those infected at various intervals post-infection (5-8 weeks, 9-12 weeks, and 13-16 weeks).
- Results showed that patients in the infected groups experienced higher intrapulmonary shunt and lower oxygen levels compared to the non-infected group during different phases of ventilation, suggesting impaired pulmonary function related to the infection.
The feasibility and accuracy of the method for selecting the optimal size of double-lumen tube in thoracic surgery: a prospective, randomized controlled trial.

Article Synopsis
- Double-lumen tubes (DLTs) are essential for one-lung ventilation during thoracic surgeries, and finding the right size for patients is challenging.
- In this study, 60 patients needing a left side DLT were divided into two groups: one with collapsed cuffs and the other with inflated cuffs, both aiming to match the DLT size to the patient's trachea and bronchus.
- Results showed significantly fewer airway complications and shorter intubation times in the inflated cuffs group compared to the collapsed cuffs group, suggesting that the inflated method may be more effective for DLT selection.
