Thoracic Anaesthesia and One Lung Ventilation

Overview

Thoracic anesthesia is a specialized field of anesthesiology that focuses on procedures involving the chest, particularly surgeries related to the lungs, esophagus, and mediastinum. One Lung Ventilation (OLV) is a crucial technique in thoracic anesthesia, where only one lung is ventilated while the other temporarily collapses. This method provides optimal surgical conditions and improved visualization during thoracic surgeries, such as lung resections or esophageal procedures.
