Pulmonary levels of biomarkers for inflammation and lung injury in protective versus conventional one-lung ventilation for oesophagectomy: A randomised clinical trial

CONCLUSION Intra-operative protective ventilation compared with conventional ventilation does not affect changes in pulmonary levels of biomarkers for inflammation and lung injury in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation for oesophagectomy. TRIAL REGISTRATION The ‘Low versus Conventional tidal volumes during one-lung ventilation for minimally invasive oesophagectomy trial’ (LoCo) was registered at the Netherlands Trial Register (study identifier NTR 4391).
