ClinicalTrial.gov registration #

Effect of Lung Protective One-lung Ventilation with Fix and Variable PEEP on Oxygenation and Outcome

Hungary, single center

Interventions

Under tidal volume 6 mL/kg/PBW, compare fix 5 cmH2O PEEP and variable PEEP with recruitment maneuvers.

Outcome Measures

Primary: intraoperative oxygenation

Secondary: postoperative complications and survival

NCT03968120

Optimal Level of PEEP in Protective One-lung Ventilation

Korea, single center

Interventions

Under tidal volume 5 mL/kg/PBW, compare 3, 6, and 9 cmH2O PEEP and variable PEEP.

Outcome Measures

Primary: modified lung ultrasound score

Secondary: intraoperative desaturation, PaO2/FiO2, plasma inflammatory cytokines, postoperative desaturation and pulmonary complication

NCT03856918

Electrical Impedance Tomography in One-Lung Ventilation

Chile, single center

Interventions

Compare three tidal volumes (4, 6 and 8 mL/kg/PBW) and two PEEP’s (6 cmH20 and best PEEP obtained after a recruitment maneuver and decremental titration).

Outcome Measures

Ventilation/perfusion ratio, pulmonary mechanics, arterial gas measurement

NCT03728010

Individualized vs Low PEEP in One Lung Ventilation

US, single center

Interventions

Compare individualized PEEP (max lung compliance) and low PEEP (5 cmH2O).

Outcome Measures

Primary: cerebral oximetry

Secondary: arterial and venous blood oxygen tension, venous blood oxygen saturation, cardiac output, phenylephrine dose

NCT03569774

Individualized Perioperative Open-Lung Ventilatory Strategy During One-Lung Ventilation (iPROVE-OLV)

International, multicenter

Interventions

Under tidal volume 5–6 mL/kg/PBW, compare alveolar recruitment maneuver plus PEEP titration trial and lung protective ventilation (PEEP 5 cmH2O).

Outcome Measures

Primary: postoperative pulmonary complications

Secondary: postoperative complications, length of hospital stay

NCT03182062

Protective Ventilation with High Versus Low PEEP During One-lung Ventilation for Thoracic Surgery (PROTHOR)

International, multicenter

Interventions

Under tidal volume 5 mL/kg/PBW, compare higher PEEP (PEEP 10 cmH2O + lung recruitment) and lower PEEP (PEEP 5 cmH2O only).

Outcome Measures

Primary: postoperative pulmonary complications

NCT02963025
