  A noninvasive partial carbon dioxide rebreathing technique for measurement of pulmonary capillary blood flow is also a useful oxygenation monitor during one-lung ventilation.

  To test the hypothesis that effective pulmonary capillary blood flow can be a useful indicator for estimating appropriate oxygenation and ventilation during one-lung ventilation in lung surgery. ⋯ Effective pulmonary capillary blood flow index and effective pulmonary blood stroke flow index are useful indicators for determining appropriate oxygenation therapy during one-lung ventilation.
