Abstract: Objective To observe the effect of one-lung ventilation on takeup of sevoflurane. Methods Fifteen patients undergoing esophagus tumorectomy(one-lung ventilation,OLV) and fifteen patients undergoing stomach tumorectomy (two-lung ventilation,TLV) were selected. Either double-lumen endobronchial tube or mon-lumen tracheal tube was inserted after general anesthesia to controll ventilation. Bispectral Index(BIS), Fi and Et were recorded at each measurement point, and Et/Fi was calculated. Results The BIS value of OLV group was higher than of TLV group(P<0.05), Et/Fi of OLV group was higher than TLV group(P<0.01). OLV group: The BIS value gradually decreased and reached into anesthetic state(60) at 5 minute, and then enough anesthesia depth(BIS value =40-60) was maintained during 5-120min. Et gradually increased and reached into steady state (the change in 30 minute was no statistical significance)at 30 minute. Et/Fi increased and reached into steady state at 50 minute, and the difference of Et/Fi during 50 -120min had no statistical significance(P>0.05). TLV group: The BIS value gradually decreased and reached into anesthetic state at 2 minute, and then enough anesthesia depth was maintained during 2-70min. However, BIS value was less than 40 after 70 minutes. Et gradually increased and reached into steady state at 20 minute. Et/Fi gradually increased and reached into steady state at 2 minute, the difference of Et/Fi during 2-120min had no statistical significance(P>0.05). Conclusions One-lung ventilation had effect on pulmonary uptake of sevoflurane. The total amount of uptake of OLV was less than that of TLV, while uptake rate of OLV during 2-50min was faster than that of TLV. Both OLV and TLV could supply surgery-needed anesthetic depth with sevoflurane inhalant concentration 3%vol. However, inhalant concentration should be adjusted after 70 minutes to avoid excessive anesthesia during TLV. Furthermore, anesthetic depth of OLV was less than that of TLV, and OLV needed longer time to reach into steady state compared with TLV.
