Study summary

One-lung ventilation during thoracic surgery may affect systemic oxygenation and peripheral microcirculation by hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction. Both intravenous and inhalational anesthetics can be used during one-lung ventilation. However, there is still a controversy which anesthetic would be more appropriate during one-lung ventilation in the perspective of oxygenation and microcirculation. The investigators hypothesized that intravenous and inhalational anesthetics may affect oxygenation and microcirculation differently during one-lung ventilation.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing thoracic surgery including one-lung ventilation will be randomized to receive intravenous (propofol) or inhalational (desflurane) anesthetic.

Systemic oxygenation can be evaluated by measuring partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood analysis. Microcirculatory parameters can be obtained from vascular occlusion test. Among those parameters, recovery slope during vascular occlusion test is known to reflect recruitment of microvasculature in response to hypoxic or ischemic insult. In this study, we will compare arterial partial pressure of oxygen and recovery slope during one-lung ventilation between propofol and desflurane group.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    propofol

    Propofol is used as a maintenance anesthetic to patients in the propofol group. Intervention: propofol infusion by target-controlled infusion for maintaining anesthesia propofol (Fresofol MCT 2%) target effect site concentration: 4\~5 mcg/ml, during general anesthesia

    Drug: propofol

  • Experimental
    desflurane

    Desflurane is used as a maintenance anesthetic to patients in the desflurane group. Intervention: Desflurane administration for maintaining anesthesia desflurane (Suprane) inhalation as 6\~8 vol% during general anesthesia

    Drug: desflurane

Interventions

  • Drugpropofol

    Patients are randomized to receive intravenous anesthetic (propofol) or inhalational anesthetic (desflurane) as a maintenance anesthetic.

    Also known as: propofol (Fresofol(R)2 MCT 2%, Fresenius Kabi)

  • Drugdesflurane

    Patients are randomized to receive intravenous anesthetic (propofol) or inhalational anesthetic (desflurane) as a maintenance anesthetic.

    Also known as: desflurane (Suprane(R), Baxter Healthcare)
