Desflurane offers no oxygenation advantage over isoflurane during one-lung ventilation; warrants caution in CABG patients due to increased pulmonary pressures.
Does desflurane compared to isoflurane improve arterial oxygenation and hemodynamics during one-lung ventilation in patients undergoing CABG?
Desflurane and isoflurane provide similar arterial oxygenation during one-lung ventilation, but desflurane should be used with caution in ischemic heart disease due to its potential to increase pulmonary pressures.
