Peep titration based on the open lung approach during one lung ventilation in thoracic surgery: a physiological study

Abstract Background During thoracic surgery in lateral decubitus, one lung ventilation (OLV) may impair respiratory mechanics and gas exchange. We tested a strategy based on an open lung approach (OLA) consisting in lung recruitment immediately followed by a decremental positive-end expiratory press...
