Objectives
• Indication/contraindication of OLV
• Physiology changes of OLV
• Selection of the methods for OLV
• Management of common problems associated with OLV, especially hypoxemia
Introduction
• One-lung ventilation, OLV, means separation of the two lungs and each lung functioning independently by preparation of the airway
• OLV provides:– Protection of healthy lung from infected/bleeding one
– Diversion of ventilation from damaged airway or lung
– Improved exposure of surgical field
• OLV causes:– More manipulation of airway, more damage
– Significant physiologic change and easily development of hypoxemia
Indication • Absolute
– Isolation of one lung from the other to avoid spillage or contamination
• Infection
• Massive hemorrhage
– Control of the distribution of ventilation
• Bronchopleural fistula
• Bronchopleural cutaneous fistula
• Surgical opening of a major conducting airway
• giant unilateral lung cyst or bulla
• Tracheobronchial tree disruption
• Life-threatening hypoxemia due to unilateral lung disease– Unilateral bronchopulmonary lavage
Indication (continued)• Relative
– Surgical exposure ( high priority)• Thoracic aortic aneurysm
• Pneumonectomy
• Upper lobectomy
• Mediastinal exposure
• Thoracoscopy
– Surgical exposure (low priority)• Middle and lower lobectomies and subsegmental resections
• Esophageal surgery
• Thoracic spine procedure
• Minimal invasive cardiac surgery (MID-CABG, TMR)
– Postcardiopulmonary bypass status after removal of totally occluding chronic unilateral pulmonary emboli
– Severe hypoxemia due to unilateral lung disease

Summary of V-Q relationships in the anesthetized, open-chest and paralyzed patients

Physiology of OLV• The principle physiologic change of OLV is the redistribution of
lung perfusion between the ventilated (dependent) and blocked (nondependent) lung
• Many factors contribute to the lung perfusion, the major determinants of them are hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, HPV and gravity.
HPV• HPV, a local response of pulmonary artery smooth muscle,
decreases blood flow to the area of lung where a low alveolar oxygen pressure is sensed.
• The mechanism of HPV is not completely understood. Vasoactive substances released by hypoxia or hypoxia itself (K+ channel) cause pulmonary artery smooth muscle contraction
• HPV aids in keeping a normal V/Q relationship by diversion of blood from underventilated areas, responsible for the most lung perfusion redistribution in OLV
• HPV is graded and limited, of greatest benefit when 30% to 70% of the lung is made hypoxic.
• But effective only when there are normoxic areas of the lung available to receive the diverted blood flow
Factors Affecting Regional HPV
• HPV is inhibited directly by volatile anesthetics (not N20), vasodilators (NTG, SNP, dobutamine, many ß2-agonist), increased PVR (MS, MI, PE) and hypocapnia
• HPV is indirectly inhibited by PEEP, vasoconstrictor drugs (Epi, dopa, Neosynephrine) by preferentially constrict normoxic lung vessels
Gravity and V-Q• Upright LDP
Shunt and OLV• Physiological (postpulmonary) shunt
• About 2-5% CO,
• Accounting for normal A-aD02, 10-15 mmHg
• Including drainages from – Thebesian veins of the heart
– The pulmonary bronchial veins
– Mediastinal and pleural veins
• Transpulmonary shunt increased due to continued perfusion of the atelectatic lung and A-aD02 may increase
Two-lung Ventilation and OLV
Methods of OLV
• Double-lumen endotracheal tube, DLT
• Single-lumen ET with a built-in bronchial blocker, Univent Tube
• Single-lumen ET with an isolated bronchial blocker– Arndt (wire-guided) endobronchial blocker set– Balloon-tipped luminal catheters
• Endobronchial intubation of a single-lumen ET
DLT
• Type:– Carlens, a left-sided + a carinal hook
– White, a right-sided Carlens tube
– Bryce-Smith, no hook but a slotted cuff/Rt
– Robertshaw, most widely used
• All have two lumina/cuffs, one terminating in the trachea and the other in the mainstem bronchus
• Right-sided or left-sided available• Available size: 41,39, 37, 35, 28 French (ID=6.5,
6.0, 5.5, 5.0 and 4.5 mm respectively)
Left DLT…• Most commonly used• The bronchial lumen is longer, and a simple round opening and symmetric cuff Better margin of
safety than Rt DLT• Easy to apply suction and/or CPAP to either lung• Easy to deflate lung• Lower bronchial cuff volumes and pressures• Can be used
– Left lung isolation:
clamp bronchial +
ventilate/ tracheal lumen– Right lung isolation:
clamp tracheal +
ventilate/bronchial lumen
…Left DLT• More difficult to insert (size and curve, cuff)• Risk of tube change and airway damage if kept in
position for post-op ventilation• Contraindication:
– Presence of lesion along DLT pathway
– Difficult/impossible conventional direct vision intubation
– Critically ill patients with single lumen tube in situ who cannot tolerate even a short period of off mechanical ventilation
– Full stomach or high risk of aspiration
– Patients, too small (<25-35kg) or too young (< 8-12 yrs)
Univent Tube...• Developed by Dr. Inoue
• Movable blocker shaft in external lumen of a single-lumen ET tube
• Easier to insert and properly position than DLT (diff airway, C-s injury, pedi or critical pts)
• No need to change the tube for postop ventilation
• Selective blockade of some lobes of the lung
• Suction and delivery CPAP to the blocked lung
...Univent Tube
• Slow deflation (need suction) and inflation (short PPV or jet ventilation)
• Blockage of bronchial blocker lumen
• Higher endobronchial cuff volumes +pressure (just-seal volume recommended)
• Higher rate of intraoperative leak in the blocker cuff
• Higher failure rate if the blocker advanced blindly
Arndt Endobronchial Blocker set• Invented by Dr. Arndt, an anesthesiologist• Ideal for diff intubation, pre-existing ETT and
postop ventilation needed • Requires ETT > or = 8.0 mm• Similar problems as Univent• Inability to suction or ventilate the blocked lung
Other Methods of OLV
• Single-lumen ETT with a balloon-tipped catheter– Including Fogarty embolectomy catheter, Magill or
Foley, and Swan-Ganz catheter (children < 10 kg)
– Not reliable and may be more time-consuming
– Inability to suction or ventilate the blocked lung
• Endobronchial intubation of single-lumen ETT– The easiest and quickest way of separating one lung
from the other bleeding one, esp. from left lung
– More often used for pedi patients
– More likely to cause serious hypoxemia or severe bronchial damage
Management of OLV...Initial management of OLV anesthesia:
– Maintain two-lung ventilation as long as possible
– Use FIO2 = 1.0
– Tidal volume, 10 ml/kg (8-12 ml/kg)
– Adjust RR (increasing 20-30%) to keep PaCO2 = 40 mmHg
– No PEEP (or very low PEEP, < 5 cm H2O)
– Continuous monitoring of oxygenation and ventilation (SpO2, ABG and ET CO2)
...Management of OLV• If severe hypoxemia occurs, following steps be taken
– Check DLT position with FOB
– Check hemodynamic status
– CPAP (5-10 cm H2O, 5 L/min) to nondependent lung, most effective
– PEEP (5-10 cm H2O) to dependent lung, least effective
– Intermittent two-lung ventilation
– Clamp pulmonary artery ASAP
• Other causes of hypoxemia in OLV– Mechanical failure of 02 supply or airway blockade
– Hypoventilation
– Resorption of residual 02 from the clamped lung
– Factors that decrease Sv02 (CO, 02 consumption)
Broncho-Cath CPAP System
Summary• OLV widely used in cardiothoracic surgery• Many methods can be used for OLV. Each of them
have advantages + disadvantages. Optimal methods depends on indication, patient factors, equipment, skills + training
• FOB is the key equipment for OLV • Principle physiologic change of OLV is the
redistribution of pulmonary blood flow to keep an appropriate V/Q match
• Management of OLV is a challenge for the anesthesiologist, requiring knowledge, skill, vigilance, experience, and practice
