ANESTHESIA CONSIDERATIONS FOR LUNG
TRANSPLANT
DR. ABHIJIT S. NAIR
Consultant Anesthesiologist
Is anesthesia management related to
cardiac anesthesia or OLV as in
non
cardiac thoracic surgeries?
“ ITS CARDIAC ANESTHESIA WITH
OLV ( DLT
OR BLOCKER) EITHER BEATING HEART
OR
CPB WITHOUT CARDIOPLEGIA ”
DONORS
 Brain dead/ trauma victims
 Compatible
 P/F ratio > 300
 Less than 60 years
 Preferably non- smokers
 Acceptable bronchoscopy findings
INDICATIONS
“ End stage lung disease “
 Suppurative
 Restrictive
 Obstructive
 Pulmonary vascular
SINGLE LUNG TRANSPLANT
 Emphysema
 Pulmonary fibrosis
 Pulmonary Hypertension
 Connective tissue disorders
 ILD
 Bronchoalveolar carcinoma?
DOUBLE LUNG TRANSPLANT
 Suppurative lung disease
 Emphysema
 PH
ABSOLUTE CONTRAINDICATIONS
 Ventilatory cripple
 Metastatic cancer
 Serious, multiple co-morbidities
 Psychosocial issues

 Viral markers positive
CONT
 Age ( > 60y for DLT, > 65y for SLT )

 INDICATION
 ENTITIES
 ISSUES
OBSTRUCTIVE LUNG DISEASE
 COPD

insertion
 Ventilatory strategies?
RESTRICTIVE LUNG DISEASE:

STRICT ASEPSIS
TEE
 Improves standard of care
 Lot of information
 ACC/AHA/ASE: Class 2 b
indication
INDICATIONS OF TEE

 Right ventricular dysfunction
 Suspicion of a patent foramen
ovale
INFORMATION PROVIDED BY TEE
 Left and right sided preload
 Left and right ventricular function
 Regional wall motion abnormalities
 Intracardiac air
 Detects intra cardiac thrombus
 Detects shunting: unexplained hypoxemia
INDUCTION
 Avoid myocardial depression
 Avoid hyperinflation of lung
 Avoid increase in RV afterload
CHOICE OF ETT
 Left DLT ideal
 Lot of advantages of DLT over regular ETT
 DLT to ETT at the end with tube exchanger
 Bronchial blocker can be used for single lung
transplants
CPB IN LUNG TRANSPLANT
 Pulmonary hypertension
 Simultaneous cardiac surgery
 Patients requiring plasma
pheresis for HLA mismatch
 HLA antibodies against donors
CONT
 Not tolerating OLV
 Not tolerating PA clamping ( RVF )
 Hemodynamic instability
 If PA pressure don’t reduce after perfusing
first lung
 ECMO dependent patient
CPB?
 Beating heart CPB
 Cardioplegia used in simultaneous cardiac
surgeries
ADVANTAGES OF CPB
 Hemodynamic stability
 Controlled reperfusion of grafts
DISADVANTAGES OF CPB
 Hemolysis
 AKI
 ALI
 TRALI
 Mechanical ventilation
 Pulmonary edema
RV FAILURE
 At induction
 OLV
 Hilum manipulation
 PA clamp
 After reperfusion
 Severe early graft dysfunction
RV AFTERLOAD REDUCTION
 Correct parameters
 Milrinone, Noradrenaline, adrenaline
 Pulmonary vasodilatation: 100% O2, NO
 PGI2
 Inhaled milrinone ??
POST OPERATIVE MANAGEMENT
 Extubation after SLT
 Pain management
 Bronchodilators
 NIV
 Chest PT
 DVT prophylaxis
VENTILATION
 Use of CPB
 Core hypothermia
 Unstable patient
 Bilateral lung transplant
