Lung protective ventilation in infants undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery for congenital heart disease: A prospective randomized controlled trial.

LPV could be used safely in infants undergoing CPB in that it can improve oxygenation, alveolar aeration, and dynamic compliance, and reduce driving pressure, pulmonary shunting, and dead space. Its effect on oxygenation, pulmonary gas exchange, and pulmonary compliance was relatively short, and had less impact on postoperative pulmonary complications and prognosis.
