Randomized Controlled Trial[Ketamine inhalation before one-lung ventilation for perioperative lung protection in thoracic surgery patients].
To explore the effects of ketamine inhalation before one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients undergoing transthoracic esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. ⋯ Inhalation and intravenous infusion of ketamine before OLV are equally effective in lowering the serum levels of IL-6, IL-8 and sICAM-1. And ultrasonic atomizing inhalation of ketamine can avoid adverse effects on airway pressure and circulatory system caused by an intravenous infusion of ketamine.
