New concepts of atelectasis during general anaesthesia.
At the beginning of the last century, Pasteur described postoperative pulmonary atelectasis, analysed postoperative pulmonary complications (PCC; see below) and noted: `when the true history of postoperative lung complications comes to be written, active collapse of the lung, from de®ciency of inspiratory power, will be found to occupy an important position among determining causes'. Indeed, at...
متن کاملDynamics of re-expansion of atelectasis during general anaesthesia.
A major cause of impaired gas exchange during general anaesthesia is atelectasis, causing pulmonary shunt. A 'vital capacity' (VC) manoeuvre (i.e. inflation of the lungs up to 40 cm H2O, maintained for 15 s) may re-expand atelectasis and improve oxygenation. However, such a manoeuvre may cause adverse cardiovascular effects. Reducing the time of maximal inflation may improve the margin of safet...
متن کاملA ventilation strategy during general anaesthesia to reduce postoperative atelectasis
BACKGROUND Atelectasis is common during and after general anaesthesia. We hypothesized that a ventilation strategy, without recruitment manoeuvres, using a combination of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and a reduced end-expiratory oxygen fraction (FETO2) before ending mask ventilation with CPAP after extubation would reduce the area of post...
متن کاملAtelectasis during anesthesia: physiology and treatment.
Prezada Editora, Foi com grande interesse que li o artigo 1 publicado na Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia. Gostaria de parabenizar os autores pela louvável iniciativa. Preocupado em esclarecer alguns aspectos, me ocorreu fazer algumas comentários: 1) Os autores descrevem no artigo que a diminuição da complacência pulmonar e a piora das trocas gasosas seriam os parâmetros utilizados como cri...
متن کاملRound atelectasis in sarcoidosis
Round atelectasis is a benign inflammatory condition most frequently observed in patients with asbestos exposure but it can also result from a variety of chronic pleural diseases like infection. It has not previously been described in sarcoidosis. We report the occurrence of round atelectasis in four previously diagnosed sarcoidosis patients who were under follow up at our outpatient clinic. Th...
