A study testing Differential ventilation to the non-dependent lung in people with Hypoxemia, run by Daping Hospital and the Research Institute of Surgery of the Third Military Medical University at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
These robot-assisted cardiac surgeries usually require single-lung ventilation (SLV) to facilitate surgical exposure. SLV creates ventilation/perfusion mismatch and shunt (Qs:Qt) through the collapsed lung and leads to hypoxemia. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: The High-frequency Low-volume Ventilation (HFLVV) for Hypoxemia During the Weaning From Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Robot-assisted Cardiac Surgery
These robot-assisted cardiac surgeries usually require single-lung ventilation (SLV) to facilitate surgical exposure. SLV creates ventilation/perfusion mismatch and shunt (Qs:Qt) through the collapsed lung and leads to hypoxemia. Pulmonary gas exchange often deteriorates after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) because of ischemic tissue damage. In some cases, severe hypoxemia may require the cessation of surgical procedures and the initiation of double-lung ventilation to improve oxygenation. In this study, the investigator applied the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or the high-frequency low-volume ventilation (HFLVV) to the non-dependent lung (differential ventilation) during the weaning from CPB. The investigator hypothesized that the differential ventilation would produce the least interference with the surgeon's exposure and better oxygenation. The investigators evaluate the airway pressure, shunt fraction, PaO2/FiO2, cerebral oximetry, surgical field condition and the length of stay in intensive care unit of patients underwent the robot-assisted cardiac surgery.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Differential ventilation to the non-dependent lungProcedure or surgery
When the hypoxemia occurs during sing lung ventilation in robot-assisted cardiac surgery, the non-dependent lung will be ventilated with normal tidal volume in conventional ways and the surgery procedure have to be ceased. In this trial, the non-dependent lung will be ventilated with the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or the high-frequency low-volume ventilation (HFLVV) to prevent the hypoxemia.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
These robot-assisted cardiac surgeries usually require single-lung ventilation (SLV) to facilitate surgical exposure. SLV creates ventilation/perfusion mismatch and shunt (Qs:Qt) through the collapsed lung and leads to hypoxemia. Pulmonary gas exchange often deteriorates after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) because of ischemic tissue damage. In some cases, severe hypoxemia may require the cessation of surgical procedures and the initiation of double-lung ventilation to improve oxygenation. In this study, the investigator applied the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or the high-frequency low-volume ventilation (HFLVV) to the non-dependent lung (differential ventilation) during the weaning from CPB. The investigator hypothesized that the differential ventilation would produce the least interference with the surgeon's exposure and better oxygenation. The investigators evaluate the airway pressure, shunt fraction, PaO2/FiO2, cerebral oximetry, surgical field condition and the length of stay in intensive care unit of patients underwent the robot-assisted cardiac surgery.
