Lung transplant
| Anesthesia type |
GA +/- epidural |
|---|---|
| Airway |
DLT, left sided |
| Lines and access |
large bore IVs, central access (volume and infusion lines) |
| Monitors |
Standard, arterial line, CVP, +/- PA cath, TEE, neurooximetry |
| Primary anesthetic considerations | |
| Preoperative |
Usually significant oxygen requirement, possible RH disease |
| Intraoperative |
Thoracic epidural, 1 lung ventilation w/ DLT (may require ECMO or bypass if not tolerated) |
