Alveolar recruitment maneuver in refractory hypoxemia and lobar atelectasis after cardiac surgery: A case report

OBJECTIVE: This case report describes an unusual presentation of right upper lobe atelectasis associated with refractory hypoxemia to conventional alveolar recruitment maneuvers in a patient soon after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. METHOD: Case-report. RESULTS: The alveolar recruitment wi...

description OBJECTIVE: This case report describes an unusual presentation of right upper lobe atelectasis associated with refractory hypoxemia to conventional alveolar recruitment maneuvers in a patient soon after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. METHOD: Case-report. RESULTS: The alveolar recruitment with PEEP = 40cmH(2)O improved the patient’s atelectasis and hypoxemia. CONCLUSION: In the present report, the unusual alveolar recruitment maneuver with PEEP 40cmH(2)O showed to be safe and efficient to reverse refractory hypoxemia and uncommon atelectasis in a patient after cardiac surgery.
