Abstract

High-frequency pulsation (HFP), a modified high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) technique, was applied intraoperatively as an alternative to conventional inter mittent positive-pressure ventilation in 16 patients undergoing major thoracic operations. Gas exchange and hemodynamic stability were maintained at a frequency of 300 cycle/min. Surgical maneuvers were easier because the lungs were almost completely immobilized.
