TLDR
The authors discuss the effects and implications of atelectasis in the perioperative period and illustrate how preventive measures may impact outcome and the impact of atElectasis and its prevention in acute lung injury.Abstract:
Atelectasis occurs in the dependent parts of the lungs of most patients who are anesthetized. Development of atelectasis is associated with decreased lung compliance, impairment of oxygenation, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, and development of lung injury. The adverse effects of atelectasis persist into the postoperative period and can impact patient recovery. This review article focuses on the causes, nature, and diagnosis of atelectasis. The authors discuss the effects and implications of atelectasis in the perioperative period and illustrate how preventive measures may impact outcome. In addition, they examine the impact of atelectasis and its prevention in acute lung injury.read more

The Influences of three Intraoperative Ventilatory Strategies on Arterial Oxygenation in Morbid Obese Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery
TL;DR: RM and IRV had provided better arterial oxygenation and respiratory mechanics compared to conventional ventilation in morbid obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery, however, RM had better gas exchange than IRV.

Noninvasive Ventilation in the Perioperative Period
TL;DR: High-flow nasal therapy (HFNT) is a ventilator support where humidified and heated gases are administered to the patient’s airways by a small nasal cannula at flow that reach up to 60 L/min.

Ventilation with lower tidal volumes as compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: In patients with acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, mechanical ventilation with a lower tidal volume than is traditionally used results in decreased mortality and increases the number of days without ventilator use.

TL;DR: As compared with conventional ventilation, the protective strategy was associated with improved survival at 28 days, a higher rate of weaning from mechanical ventilation, and a lower rate of barotrauma in patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: Mechanical ventilation can induce a cytokine response that may be attenuated by a strategy to minimize overdistention and recruitment/derecruitment of the lung, and these physiological improvements are associated with improvements in clinical end points.
