Study of Cardiac Power Index During Supine, Lateral, and Between Left and Right Positions During Two- and One-Lung Ventilation (OLV): Comparison of Hemodynamic Changes After Lung Recruitment Maneuver and Fluid Challenge Among Responders and Non-Responders (SVI, MAP, CPI Changes).

The aim of this trial is to study the changes of the Cardiac Power Index (CPI) during supine and lateral decubitus position in two and one lung ventilation respectively. Moreover, CPI variations will be compared among patients in left versus patients in right lateral decubitus position. A secondary goal is to compare the changes in hemodynamic parameters after a lung recruitment maneuver during one lung ventilation and a fluid challenge test among patients that respond (responders) or do not respond to fluids (non-responders) according to changes of Stroke Volume Index (SVI) and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP).
