The effect of open lung ventilation on right ventricular and left ventricular function in lung-lavaged pigs
INTRODUCTION: Ventilation according to the open lung concept (OLC) consists of recruitment maneuvers, followed by low tidal volume and high positive end-expiratory pressure, aiming at minimizing atelectasis. The minimization of atelectasis reduces the right ventricular (RV) afterload, but the increa...
