Study Details

Brief summary:

Patients scheduled for lung lobe resection using video assisted thoracic surgery will be randomly assigned to be ventilated with either only oxygen or a mixture of air and oxygen.

The primary purpose of this study is to determine if the incidence of postoperative collapse (in the non-surgical lung) is decreased when using a mixture of air and oxygen compared to using only oxygen (which is our control measurement) during one-lung ventilation.
