Unilateral Ventilation on Cardiopulmonary Bypass During Cardiac Surgery

This study investigates if single lung ventilation on cardiopulmonary bypass can mitigate postoperative lung water accumulation determined by lung ultrasound in the ventilated lung as compared to the non-ventilated lung in patients at high-risk for developing severe pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery.
