Lung Ultrasound to Assess Aeration Loss After Lung Resection Surgery
Sponsor: Ana Broseta Lleó
Summary
The purpose of this prospective observational study is to assess perioperative changes in lung aeration after lung resection surgery using lung ultrasound, and to explore their relationship with oxygenation, inflammatory biomarkers, cardiac stress markers and diaphragmatic function.

Perioperative lung ultrasound assessment
Lung ultrasound was performed at three predefined perioperative time points: before surgery, in the immediate postoperative period after extubation, and 24 hours after surgery. Each hemithorax was assessed in six regions, and lung aeration was evaluated using a semiquantitative lung ultrasound score.
