Regional Anesthesia Combined With Respiratory Physiotherapy Improves Postoperative PaO₂:FiO₂ Ratio and Pulmonary Atelectasis in Thoracolaparoscopic Esophagectomy:A Randomized Controlled Trial
Key Points
Enhanced PaO₂:FiO₂ ratio was observed, suggesting improved oxygenation post-surgery.
The study reported a significant reduction in pulmonary atelectasis, with implications for recovery.
Randomized controlled trial compared outcomes with regional anesthesia and respiratory physiotherapy in intervention.
Findings highlight the combined techniques' potential benefits, informing postoperative care strategies.
