Postoperative Care of Patients Undergoing Lung Resection
Due to frequent pre-existing comorbidities and variable impairment of postoperative respiratory function thoracic surgical patients still encounter various complications which in high risk individuals may contribute to poor outcome. Postoperative management of patients undergoing lung resection may vary from simple and transient monitoring of vital functions in the recovery room to the highly s...
متن کاملPredictors of prolonged postoperative endotracheal intubation in patients undergoing thoracotomy for lung resection.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify predictors of delayed endotracheal extubation defined as the need for postoperative ventilatory support after open thoracotomy for lung resection. DESIGN An observational cohort investigation. SETTING A tertiary referral center. PARTICIPANTS The study population consisted of 2,068 patients who had open thoracotomy for pneumonectomy, lobectom...
متن کاملRole of quantitative CT in predicting postoperative FEV1 and chronic dyspnea in patients undergoing lung resection
Lung resection is the mainstay of treatment in patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer. However, lung cancer patients often suffer from comorbidities and the respiratory reserve should be carefully evaluated preoperatively in order to avoid postoperative complications. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) is considered to be an index that depicts the patient's respiratory ef...
متن کاملPostoperative lung injury and oxidative damage in patients undergoing pulmonary resection.
Postpneumonectomy pulmonary oedema (PPO) complicates a significant number of thoracic surgical procedures involving lung resection and in its extreme form is indistinguishable from the acute respiratory distress syndrome. This study investigated the possibility that ischaemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury contributes to PPO via the production of damaging reactive oxygen species. In a prospective, ob...
متن کاملPrediction of postoperative pulmonary reserve in lung resection patients
UNLABELLED We performed Ventilation/Perfusion scans for patients planned for thoracotomy with resection of the primary or metastatic lung tumors. We predicted the post-operative FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in first second) using Differential Lung Analysis software. METHODS 34 patients were evaluated with Ventilation/Perfusion (V/Q) scans. Ventilation scan was performed with Tc-99m DTPA Aer...
