    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: A significant reduction in regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) is commonly observed during one-lung ventilation (OLV), while positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can improve oxygenation. We compared the effects of three different PEEP levels on rSO2, pulmonary oxygenation, and hemodynamics during OLV. METHODS: Forty-three elderly patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy were randomly assigned to one of six PEEP combinations which used a crossover design of 3 levels of PEEP-0 cmH2O, 5 cmH2O, and 10 cmH2O. The primary endpoint was rSO2 in patients receiving OLV 20 min after adjusting the PEEP. The secondary outcomes included hemodynamic and respiratory variables. RESULTS: After exclusion, thirty-six patients (36.11% female; age range: 60-76 year) were assigned to six groups (n = 6 in each group). The rSO2 was highest at OLV(0) than at OLV(10) (difference, 2.889%; [95% CI, 0.573 to 5.204%]; p = 0.008). Arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) was lowest at OLV(0) compared with OLV(5) (difference, -62.639 mmHg; [95% CI, -106.170 to -19.108 mmHg]; p = 0.005) or OLV(10) (difference, -73.389 mmHg; [95% CI, -117.852 to -28.925 mmHg]; p = 0.001), while peak airway pressure (Ppeak) was lower at OLV(0) (difference, -4.222 mmHg; [95% CI, -5.140 to -3.304 mmHg]; p < 0.001) and OLV(5) (difference, -3.139 mmHg; [95% CI, -4.110 to -2.167 mmHg]; p < 0.001) than at OLV(10). CONCLUSIONS: PEEP with 10 cmH2O makes rSO2 decrease compared with 0 cmH2O. Applying PEEP with 5 cmH2O during OLV in elderly patients can improve oxygenation and maintain high rSO2 levels, without significantly increasing peak airway pressure compared to not using PEEP.
