Comment on: The effect of ultrasound-guided lung recruitment manoeuvre on perioperative atelectasis during laparoscopy in young infants: A randomised controlled trial

[...]Lung ultrasound (US) may produce more objective findings through evaluation of vertical comet tail artifacts known as B-lines, which are created by a decrease in the ratio of alveolar air to fluid pulmonary content. [...]In PACU, children may have deep sedation, pain, and other factors leading...

Description
Summary:[...]Lung ultrasound (US) may produce more objective findings through evaluation of vertical comet tail artifacts known as B-lines, which are created by a decrease in the ratio of alveolar air to fluid pulmonary content. [...]In PACU, children may have deep sedation, pain, and other factors leading to decreased breathing and an increased risk of atelectasis. [...]The recent study reported reduced atelectasis provided by lung-protective ventilation does not persist from 15 min after extubation onwards [3].
