Case Report：Upper Side One-lung Ventilation for Bronchial Surgery with High-frequency Jet Ventilation

High Frequency Jet Ventilation of One Lung using a Bronchial Blocker of Univent during Carinal Resection

Airway management during carinal resection should provide adequate ventilation and oxygenation as well as a good surgical field, but without complications such as barotraumas or aspiration. One method of airway management is high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) of one lung or both lungs. We describe a patient undergoing carinal resection, who was managed with HFJV of one lung, using a de-ballo...

Comparison of superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation with conventional jet ventilation for laryngeal surgery.

BACKGROUND New ventilators have simplified the use of supraglottic superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation (SHFJV(SG)), but it has not been systematically compared with other modes of jet ventilation (JV) in humans. We sought to investigate whether SHFJV(SG) would provide more effective ventilation compared with single-frequency JV techniques. METHODS A total of 16 patients undergoing min...

High - frequency Jet Ventilation

High-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) describes a technique of mechanical respiratory support based on the delivery of gases under conditions of constant flow and low pressure. Among the benefits ascribed to HFJV are lessened interference with hemodynamic function and reduced danger of barofrauma. The theoretical and technical aspects of HFJV are discussed and the clinical experience with 39 pa...

Manual jet ventilation v. high frequency jet ventilation during laser resection of tracheo-bronchial stenosis.

Manual jet ventilation (20 b.p.m.) and high frequency jet ventilation (300 b.p.m.) were compared during laser resection of tracheo-bronchial stenosis under general anaesthesia. Both methods provided similar blood-gas tensions at the 10th min of surgery in patients with tracheal stenosis. In patients with bronchial stenosis high frequency jet ventilation resulted in modest hypercarbia and manual...
