[Acid base-balance after lung resections (author's transl)]. 1977

E Danzmann

Thoracotomy and lung-resection are often followed by a decrease of the oxygenation of blood and disturbances of the acid-base-balance. Both ventilation and circulation must be restored to normal and therefore adequate levels of cardiac output, peripheral resistance, electrolytes and kidney-function are required.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007040	Hypoventilation	A reduction in the amount of air entering the pulmonary alveoli.	Hypoventilations

D011175	Positive-Pressure Respiration	A method of mechanical ventilation in which pressure is maintained to increase the volume of gas remaining in the lungs at the end of expiration, thus reducing the shunting of blood through the lungs and improving gas exchange.

D011183	Postoperative Complications	Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery.	Complication, Postoperative,Complications, Postoperative,Postoperative Complication
D012121	Respiration, Artificial	Any method of artificial breathing that employs mechanical or non-mechanical means to force the air into and out of the lungs. Artificial respiration or ventilation is used in individuals who have stopped breathing or have RESPIRATORY INSUFFICIENCY to increase their intake of oxygen (O2) and excretion of carbon dioxide (CO2).
