1. The Immune Response to One-Lung Ventilation : Clinical and Experimental Studies
Abstract : 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. READ MORE

2. Gas exchange impairment in patients undergoing cardiac surgery : with reference to ventilation-perfusion relationships, thoracic intravascular and extravascular fluid volumes, pulmonary morphology and mechanical ventilation in the prone position

3. Remote Ischemic Preconditioning and its Effects on the Respiratory System
Abstract : 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.

4. Pathophysiological and Histomorphological Effects of One-Lung Ventilation in the Porcine Lung
Abstract : 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. READ MORE
