Table 2.
Duration of OLV, the time and LIO from surgery beginning to excision of pathological tissues between the Dexmedetomidine and Control groups during operation
| Item | Groups (n = 50) | |
|---|---|---|
|
| ||
| Dexmedetomidine (n = 25) | Control (n = 25) | |
| Duration of OLV (min) | 62 ± 11 | 58 ± 13 |
| Time from surgery beginning to excision of pathological tissues (min) | 74 ± 12 | 75 ± 9 |
| LIO (mL) | 740 ± 30 | 780 ± 20 |
OLV: One lung ventilation. LIO: Liquid intake and output volume. A t test was used to analyze the differences between Dexmedetomidine and Control groups. There was no difference in the duration of OLV, the time and LIO from surgery beginning to excision of pathological tissues between the two groups (P > 0.05).
